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!
Refrain
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!
Once I
was
foolish,
and sin
ruled my
heart,
Causing my
footsteps
from God to
depart;
Jesus hath
found me,
happy my
case;
I now am a
sinner,
saved by
grace!
Refrain
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!
Refrain
Suffer a
sinner
whose heart
overflows,
Loving his
Savior to
tell what
he knows;
Once more
to tell it
would I
embrace—
I’m only a
sinner
saved by
grace!
Refrain
