Grace, Not By Works (Songs For Reformation Day)

[Verse 1]
By grace alone, we stand in faith
No works can earn this gift of grace
Our chains are broken, hearts set free
In Christ, our hope eternally

[Pre-Chorus]
Not by what we do or say
But by His love that leads the way

[Chorus]
Grace, not by works, it's true for all
His mercy and His love enthrall
We're saved by grace, not by our deeds
In Christ, our every need He meets

[Verse 2]
The cross, a symbol of His love
Where perfect sacrifice was made
His blood, a ransom paid for us
Our sins, now washed away, erased

[Pre-Chorus]
Not by what we do or say
But by His love that leads the way

[Chorus]
Grace, not by works, it's true for all
His mercy and His love enthrall
We're saved by grace, not by our deeds
In Christ, our every need He meets

[Bridge]
Let faith arise, let hearts be stirred
In grace, our deepest wounds are cured
Together, we'll proclaim His name
In grace, we find our peace and aim

[Chorus]
Grace, not by works, it's true for all
His mercy and His love enthrall
We're saved by grace, not by our deeds
In Christ, our every need He meets
