Alvin Slaughter But For Grace
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
