Not what these hands have done Can save this guilty soul Not what this toiling flesh has borne Can make my spirit whole Not what I feel or do Can give me peace with God Not all my prayers of sight and tears Can bear my heavy load Your word alone, o christ Can ease this weight of sin Your blood alone, o lamb of God Can give me peace within Your love to me, o God Not mine, o lord, to me Can rid me of this dark unrest And set my spirit free Your grace alone, o God To me can pardon speak Your power alone, o son of God Can this old bondage break I rest the christ of God I rest on life divine And without faltering lips and heart I call this saviour mine And without faltering lips and heart I call this saviour mine For mine I call you mine I call this saviour mine
