By Grace I'm Saved, Grace Free and Boundless

Author: Christian L. Scheidt Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #373 (1941) Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 By grace I'm saved, grace free and boundless; My soul, believe and doubt it not. Why stagger at this word of promise? Hath Scripture ever falsehood taught? Nay; then this word must true remain; By grace thou, too, shalt heav'n obtain. 2 By grace! None dare lay claim to merit; Our works and conduct have no worth. God in His love sent our Redeemer, Christ Jesus, to this sinful earth; His death did for our sins atone, And we are saved by grace alone. 3 By grace! Oh, mark this word of promise When thou art by thy sins opprest, When Satan plagues thy troubled conscience, And when thy heart is seeking rest. What reason cannot comprehend God by His grace to thee doth send. 4 By grace God's Son, our only Savior, Came down to earth to bear our sin. Was it because of thine own merit That Jesus died thy soul to win? Nay, it was grace, and grace alone, That bro't Him from His heav'nly throne. 5 By grace! This ground of faith is certain; So long as God is true, it stands. What saints have penned by inspiration, What in His Word our God commands, What our whole faith must rest upon, Is grace alone, grace in His Son. 6 By grace to timid hearts that tremble, In tribulation's furnace tried-- By grace, despite all fear and trouble, The Father's heart is open wide. Where could I help and strength secure If grace were not my anchor sure? 7 By grace! On this I'll rest when dying; In Jesus' promise I rejoice; For though I know my heart's condition, I also know my Savior's voice. My heart is glad, all grief has flown, Since I am saved by grace alone. Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9 Languages: English Tune Title: O DASS ICH TAUSEND

Author: C. L. Scheit; Rev. Matthias Loy, D. D. Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #252 (1908) Lyrics: 1 By grace I'm saved—grace free and boundless! My heart, believ'st thou this or not? Why trembliest thou with terror groundless? Has ever God a falsehood taught? His Word is true—then this must be: By grace there is a crown for thee. 2 By grace! our works are all rejected, All claims of merit pass for naught; The mighty Savior, long expected, To us this blissful truth has brought, That He by death redeems our race, And we are saved alone by grace. 3 By grace! mark well this phrase's meaning, When sin rolls sorrows o'er thy breast, When Satan threats with pride o'erweening, When troubled conscience sighs for rest; What reason ne'er can comprehend It pleases God by grace to send. 4 By grace His Son, on earth appearing, Vouchsafed beneath thy woe to bend; Hadst thou, damnation justly fearing, Done aught to render Him thy friend? Was't not that He thy welfare sought, And but by grace deliverance wrought? 5 By grace! this ground of our salvation As long as God is true endures: What saints have penned by inspiration, What God to our poor souls secures, What all our faith must rest upon, Is grace, free grace through His dear Son. 6 By grace! but think not, thou who livest Securely on in godless ways, That thou, though all are called, receivest The promised rest that wakes our praise: By grace none find in heaven a place Who live in sin in hope of grace. 7 By grace! They who have heard this sentence Must bid hypocrisy farewell; For only after deep repentance The soul what grace imports can tell; To sin while grace a trifle seems, To faith it bright with glory beams. 8 By grace! the timid hearts that languish, Find access to the Father's heart, When conflicts fierce and bitter anguish Bid all their joy and hopes depart. Where, ofttimes, should I strength obtain, Did grace my anchor not remain! 9 By grace! on this in death I'll rest me, Rejoicing e'en though feeling naught; I know my sin—it oft oppressed me— But Him, too, who my soul hath bought: My heart exults—grief flees apace— Because my soul is saved by grace. 10 By grace! O sin and Satan hear it! I bear my flag of faith on hand, And pass, in spite of doubts, nor fear it, The Red Sea to the promised land; I hold the Word my Savior taught As certain, whether felt or not.
