Grace by Which I Stand
[Verse 1]
Lord, the feelings are not the same
I guess I'm older
I guess I've changed
And how I wish it had been explained
That as you're growing
You must remember

[Chorus]
That nothing lasts
Except the grace of God
By which I stand in Jesus
I know that I would surely fall away
Except for grace
By which I am saved

[Verse 2]
Lord, I remember that special way
I vowed to serve You
When it was brand new
But like Peter, I can't even watch and pray
One hour with You
And I bet I could deny You, too

[Chorus 2]
And nothing lasts
Except the grace of God
By which I stand in Jesus
I'm sure that my whole life would waste away
Except for grace
By which I'm saved
[Chorus 1]
Well, nothing lasts
Except the grace of God
By which I stand in Jesus
I know that I would surely fall away
Except for grace
By which I am saved
