Were It Not for Grace
Time measured out my daysLife carried me alongIn my soul I yearned to follow GodBut knew Id never be so strongI looked hard at this worldTo learn how heaven could be gainedJust to end where I beganWhere human effort is all in vain[Chorus]Were it not for graceI can tell you where Id beWandering down some pointless road to nowhereWith my salvation up to meI know how that would goThe battles I would faceForever running but losing this raceWere it not for graceSo here is all my praiseExpressed with all my heartOffered to the Friend who took my placeAnd ran a course I could not startAnd when He saw in fullJust how much His would costHe still went the final mile between me and heavenSongtexteSo I would not be lost[Chorus]Forever running but losing this raceWere it not for grace
