Sunday’s Food for Thought : Grace Alone
This is one of the many songs I personally like.
The tune is nice and easy to remember, but most importantly, the lyrics serve as a great reminder to me.
That, it’s only because of God’s grace if I have what I have today, and if I could do what I do today.
It’s only because of God’s grace if I could even put my trust in Him.
And, it’s also a reminder that I must always learn to be responsible in carrying out the calling and tasks that are entrusted to me, and that God will always be with us, giving us the grace and strength that we need.
Every day. Every time.
…
GRACE ALONE
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
Chorus:
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

“For it is by grace you have been saved,through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”
Ephesians 2:8-9
