Lyrics
BY YOUR GRACE
1. In Gethsemane, while He was praying, sweat like drops of blood, fell from His face, as He cried, to His Father above, "If it be Thy will, may this cup pass away."
2. But that very hour, He had been born for. Into sinners hands, He was betrayed, for a trial, meant for others not Himself, but His Father knew it was the only way.
Middle : By Your grace, I stand in Jesus. By Your love, because He came. By His blood, I find pardon for my sin, and I receive Your mercy, by Your grace.
3. In the judgement hall, Pontius Pilate, found no fault in Him, no cause for blame. But he bowed, to the pressure from the crowd, and he showed us up, revealing all our shame.
4. On the dusty road, His cross grew heavy. There were times He fell, under the strain. But He knew, He would have to see it through, for a world of lost sinners to be saved.
