Grace Alone

[Verse 1]
D                           D2
I was an orphan lost at the fall
D                              D2
Running away when I’d hear You call
G                                D D2
   But, Father, You worked your will
D                            D2
I had no righteousness of my own
D                                D2
I had no right to draw near Your throne
G                            D
   But, Father, You loved me still

[Chorus 1]
       Bm                                   F#m
And in love before You laid the world’s foundation
        Bm                          G
You predestined to adopt me as Your own
         Bm        D     A      D/F#      G
You have raised me up so high above my station
      Bm              A              D
I’m a child of God by grace & grace alone

[Verse 2]
D                                  D2
You left Your home to seek out the lost
D                             D2
You knew the great & terrible cost
G                           D D2
   But Jesus, Your face was set
D                               D2
I worked my fingers down to the bone
D                             D2
But nothing I did could ever atone
G                         D
   But Jesus, You paid my debt

[Chorus 2]
        Bm                              F#m
By Your blood I have redemption and salvation
          Bm                                   G
Lord, You died that I might reap what You have sown
        Bm         D      A    D/F#   G
And You rose that I might be a new creation
     Bm            A              D
I am born again by grace & grace alone

[Verse 3]
D/G               D/G#
I was in darkness all of my life
D/A              D/A#
I never knew the day from the night
D/B                 D/A#        D/A   D/G#
   But, Spirit, You made me see
D/G                D/G#
I swore I knew the way on my own
  D/A                   D/A#
A head full of rocks, a heart made of stone
D/B                D/A#        D/A   D/G#
   But Spirit, You moved in me

[Chorus 3]
            G                 A           Bm
And at Your touch my sleeping spirit was awakened
      G                   A                   Bm
On my darkened heart, the light of Christ has shown
         G            A              Bm
Called into a Kingdom that cannot be shaken
         G          A              Bm
Heaven’s citizen by grace & grace alone

[Bridge]
          Bm      D       G                Bm  D   G
Yes I’ll stand in faith by grace & grace alone
       Bm       D      G                Bm  D   G
I will run this race by grace & grace alone
       Bm      D      G                Bm  D   G
I will slay my sins by grace & grace alone
       Bm        D     G                Bm  D   G
I will reach the end by grace & grace alone
