OH HOW I WAS FREED

 

Oh how I was freed

by Grace devine

not by any deed

not by an act of mine.

 

By Grace devine

By Your death and resurection,

not by an act of mine,

You washed away my awful sin.

 

By Your death and resurection,

You presented me with this free gift.

You washed away my awful sin.

Between you and me, there was a rift.

 

You presented me with this free gift

and you called it salvation.

Between you and me, there was a rift

but You closed it and called me friend.

 

For the gift called salvation,

grateful I shall always be.

You closed the rift and called me friend.

You opened my eyes and now I see.

 

Grateful I shall always be

for the eternal life I received

when You opened my eyes and let me see

To Your grace, I have cleaved.

 

Eernal life I received

not by my own deed.

To Your grace, I have cleaved.

And, oh how I was freed.
