Alvin Slaughter But For Grace Lyrics

Verse 1

Once  hope was gone, we were alone
There  was no one to save us;
Then from Your throne, mercy was shown
Jesus, Your Son forgave us
Lest  we forget and lose our memory
We  will always give thanks for the grace that sets us free

Chorus 1
But  for grace, where would we be?
Helpless and hopeless, left without Your mer - cy
But for love we'd be lost in misery
But for Your grace, O God. But for Your grace, O God

Verse  2

Loving and true, no one but You
Came to rescue us from blind - ness;
O, faithful Friend, we can depend Now till the end on Your kind - ness
Lest we forget and lose our memory
We will always give thanks for the grace that sets us free

Bridge
Stronger than we can imagine, grace that is greater than our sin
Washed by Your blood, we're forgiven
And we give You praise again and again

Chorus 2
But for grace, where would we be?
Helpless and hopeless, left without Your mer - cy
But for love we'd be lost in misery
But for Your grace, O God
But for Your grace, O God

Ending
But for Your grace, O God
