Only on Grace I Stand
Embracing Grace: A Journey of Humility and Surrender
Lyrics
I confess
I acknowledge
I have been filled with pride
I have experienced arrogance
Building my own empire
Constructing my own kingdom
Trying to prove I’m fine
Attempting to prove my well-being
I confess
I admit
I’ve raised myself to heights
I've elevated myself
Stacking myself up high
Accumulating self-importance
Foolish and blind am I
Foolish and unaware am I
When all I have, I did receive
Despite all I possess, it was received
Every breath, it’s not of me
Every breath is not my own achievement
All I have comes from your hands
Everything I have originates from your providence
Only on grace I stand
My foundation is solely on grace
I confess
I acknowledge
I’ve tried to elevate
I've attempted self-elevation
Look down and push away
Looking down on others and pushing them away
Striving to make a name
Struggling to establish a reputation
I confess
I admit
I’ve placed my trust in me
I've placed my trust in myself
My strength and ability
Relied on my strength and abilities
None of this brings me peace
None of this brings me inner peace
When all I have, I did receive
Despite all I possess, it was received
Every breath, it’s not of me
Every breath is not my own achievement
All I have comes from your hands
Everything I have originates from your providence
Only on grace I stand
My foundation is solely on grace
All I am is bought with blood
All that I am is purchased with blood
Jesus Christ, the perfect one
Jesus Christ, the flawless one
All I am comes from your hands
All that I am originates from your providence
Only on grace I stand
My foundation is solely on grace
He must increase
Emphasis on the importance of Jesus increasing in significance
He must increase
-He must increase
-He must increase
-He must increase
-He must increase
-Jesus increase
-Jesus increase
Jesus, continue to increase
Lord, humble me
Lord, make me humble
I must decrease
I must decrease in importance
Lord, humble me
Lord, make me humble
