Naught Have I Gotten but What I Received
"By grace we are saved." - Eph 2:8
VERSE 1
Naught have I gotten but what I received
Grace hath bestowed it since I have believed
Boasting excluded pride I abase
I'm only a sinner saved by grace
CHORUS
Only a sinner saved by grace
Only a sinner saved by grace
This is my story
To God be the glory
I'm only a sinner saved by grace.
VERSE 2
Once I was foolish, and sin ruled my heart
Causing my footsteps from God to depart
Jesus hath found me happy my case
I know am a sinner saved by grace.
CHORUS
Only a sinner saved by grace
Only a sinner saved by grace
This is my story
To God be the glory
I'm only a sinner saved by grace.
VERSE 3
Tears unavailing no merit had I
Mercy had saved me or else I must die
Sin had alarmed me fearing God's face
But now I'm a sinner saved by grace.
CHORUS
Only a sinner saved by grace
Only a sinner saved by grace
This is my story
To God be the glory
I'm only a sinner saved by grace.
VERSE 4
Suffer a sinner whose heart over flows
Loving his Saviour to tell what he knows
Once more to tell it would I embrace
I'm only a sinner saved by grace.
CHORUS
Only a sinner saved by grace
Only a sinner saved by grace
This is my story
To God be the glory
I'm only a sinner saved by grace.
