Grace Is Not Earned
The Lord was sent from God above A sacrificial lamb He showed the world, agape love And called Himself, “I Am” He bore our sins, forgave a thief Turned water into wine Some mocked the Lord in unbelief While asking for a sign He fed the masses, raised the dead Left footprints on the sea He bore the sins of man instead And saved a wretch like me He offered grace I couldn’t earn Paid debts I couldn’t pay Then promised us He will return To take us all away He told the righteous who believe “You’ll live forevermore” He said, “Your minds cannot conceive Just what I have in store” He said we’ll walk on streets of gold Where God provides the light There sitting on His throne, I’m told With Jesus on His right The many years I drifted lost Who knows, I could have died His grace and mercy had a cost Since then He’s been my guide In heaven will I recognize The righteous, once so strong Then wonder if I’ll realize I truly don’t belong
