If Not For the Grace of God

Grace, grace, and more grace, grace that exceeds
Sin, shame, and guilt. If not for the grace of God
Where would I be? 

GRACE is GOD’S GIFT AT CHRIST EXPENSE something
I didn’t deserve; and could not work for, apart from his help

His unmerited favour bestowed to me, done once and for all
To set me free

I don’t take for granted the eternal cost, had it not been for Jesus
I would be lost.

Grace is God’s ability, and power coming to me to do with ease, 
what I could not do with no amount of struggle, or effort on my part
