’Tis not by works that we have done,
Our souls re­deemed will be;
But by the blood of God’s dear Son,
Who died on Cal­va­ry.

Refrain

By grace are ye saved,
By grace are ye saved thro’ faith,
And that not of your­selves,
It is the gift of God.
By grace are ye saved,
By grace are ye saved thro’ faith,
And that not of yourselves,
It is the gift of God.

’Tis not by works that we can do,
Our right­eous­ness is vain;
But by what Christ Him­self hath done,
Eternal life we gain.

Refrain

’Tis not by works of ours that we
Can know our sins for­giv’n;
But by the liv­ing word of Him
Who pleads for us in Heav’n.

Refrain

’Tis not our works, but Christ’s alone,
Then rest thy anx­ious soul;
For safe thou art on Him, thy rock,
While end­less ag­es roll.
