Let the World Their Virtue Boast (EN 4807)

EN 4807 Let the World Their Virtue Boast

1Cor.2.2

Versi Version 1

1

Let the world their virtue boast,

Their works of righteousness,

I, a wretch undone and lost,

Am freely saved by grace;

Other title I disclaim;

This, only this, is all my plea:

I the chief of sinners am,

But Jesus died for me.

2

I, like Gideon’s fleece, am found

Unwatered still, and dry,

While the dew on all around,

Falls plenteous from the sky;

Yet my Lord I cannot blame,

The Savior’s grace for all is free:

I the chief of sinners am,

But Jesus died for me.

3

Surely He will lift me up,

For I of Him have need;

I cannot give up my hope,

Though I am cold and dead;

To bring fire on earth He came;

O that it now might kindled be!

I the chief of sinners am,

But Jesus died for me.

4

Jesus, Thou for me hast died,

And Thou in me wilt live;

I shall feel Thy death applied,

I shall Thy life receive;

Yet, when melted in the flame

Of love, this shall be all my plea:

I the chief of sinners am,

But Jesus died for me.
