In Your Grace Alone

Lord, when I stand in arrogance
Amazed at all my skill,
Please turn my eyes back to the truth,
I’m naught, outside Your will.
 
Let me stand humble in my praise
Of You, who made me whole,
Who lifted me up from my sin
And renewed my lost soul.
 
For I’m of no great value here,
Without Your healing grace.
Let me live in humility
Not in prideful disgrace.
 
I pray I don’t stand up in pride
And seek the praise of man,
But keep my eyes on You, alone,
My heart fixed on Your plan.
 
Then, when I come to this life’s end,
I’ll stand before Your throne
With nothing I can proudly claim
Except Your grace alone.
 
Matthew 23:12
Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
