All that I was, my sin, my guilt, My death, was all mine own; All that I am I owe to Thee, My gracious God, alone. The evil of my former state Was mine, and only mine; The good in which I now rejoice Is Thine, and only Thine. The darkness of my former state, The bondage, all was mine; The light of life in which I walk, The liberty, is Thine. Thy Word first made me feel my sin, It taught me to believe; Then, in believing, peace I found, And now I live, I live! All that I am, e’en here on earth All that I hope to be, When Jesus comes and glory dawns, I owe it, Lord to Thee. |
