We stand empowered by His grace and grace alone. If we had climbed many a mountain or have journeyed through many trials standing victorious, it’s only because of His empowering, protecting and ever leading grace.
The soul that has forgotten this truth is one that is bound to fail or fall. For God gives His grace to the humble and the proud He resists.
Every promise we can make
Every prayer and step of faith
Every difference we can make
Is only by His grace.
Every mountain we will climb
Every ray of hope we shine
Every blessing left behind
Is only by His grace.
Grace alone which God supplies
Strength unknown He will provide
Christ in us, our cornerstone
We will go forth in grace alone.
Every soul we long to reach
Every heart we hope to teach
Everywhere we share His peace
Is only by His grace.
Every loving word we say
Every tear we wipe away
Every sorrow turned to praise
Is only by His grace.
