[INTRO]
[F#] [B] [F#] [B]
[VERSE 1]
[F#]I was an orphan, lost at the fall; R[B]unning away when I’d hear you call,
[F#] But Father, you worked your w[B]ill.
[F#]I had no righteousness of my own; [B]I had no right to draw near your throne,
[F#] But Father, you loved me st[B]ill.
[CHORUS 1]
And in l[C#]ove, before you [D#m]laid the world’s found[B]ation,
You pred[C#]estined to a[D#m]dopt me as your [B]own.
You have r[C#]aised me up so [D#m]high above my st[B]ation;
I’m a c[C#]hild of God by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one.
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[F#] [B] [F#] [B]
[VERSE 2]
[F#]You left your home to seek out the lost; Y[B]ou knew the great and terrible cost
[F#] But Jesus, your face was s[B]et.
[F#]I worked my fingers down to the bone; But n[B]othing I did could ever atone,
[F#] But Jesus, you paid my d[B]ebt.
[CHORUS 2]
By your b[C#]lood I have re[D#m]demption and salv[B]ation.
Lord you d[C#]ied that I might [D#m]reap what you have s[B]own,
And you r[C#]ose that I might [D#m]be a new cre[B]ation.
I am b[C#]orn again by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one.
[BRIDGE]
[A#m]I was darkness all of my life, [B]I never knew the day from the night,
[C#] But Spirit, you [A#m]made me s[B]ee.
[A#m]I swore I knew the way on my own; H[B]ead full of rocks, a heart made of stone
[C#] But Spirit, you m[A#m]oved in m[B]e.
[CHORUS 3]
And At your t[F#]ouch my sleeping spirit was aw[B]akened;
On my d[D#m]arkened heart the light of Christ has sh[B]one.
Called in[F#]to a kingdom [G#m]that cannot sh[B]aken;
Heaven’s [D#m]citizen by g[C#]race, and grace al[B]one.
[Tag]
So I’ll s[C#]tand in faith by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one
I will [C#]run the race by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one
I will s[C#]lay my sin by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one
I will r[C#]each the end by g[D#m]race, and grace al[B]one
