FROM SIN AND DEATH I'M FREE!
Don Fortner
<)5>(Tune:
O For A Thousand Tongues #46 CM)
<CENTER>I
long pursued the path of sin,<BR>
As if under a spell.<BR>
A
rebel, hating God, unclean,<BR>
Madly,
I ran to hell!<BR>
But
God, who rich in mercy is,<BR>
(For His great love to me!),<BR>
Saved
me by His almighty grace.<BR>
From
sin and death I'm free! </P>
He gave
me faith in Jesus Christ,<BR>
Who lived and died for me,<BR>
Imputes
to me His righteousness,<BR>
And by
His grace keeps me. </P>
Indwelt
by His Spirit, I am<BR>
A new creature today.<BR>
My
crimes, my guilt, and all my blame<BR>
My
Savior washed away! </P>
To God
alone I give all praise.<BR>
"Salvation's of the Lord!"<BR>
I ask
for grace to spend my days<BR>
Spreading this wondrous word. </CENTER></P>
