BY GRACE I’LL STAND

Words: J. H. A. (edited by Robert F. Beveridge)
Music: A. Walwyn Evans

Once I was far from Je?sus,
A stran?ger to His grace,
But o’er the mount?ains bleak and cold
He sought my steps to trace;
One day, praise God, He found me,
And brought me to His fold,
And now I feel His won?drous grace
Can ne’er be ful?ly told.

Refrain:
Yes, by grace alone,
God help?ing me, I’ll stand.
True and faith?ful till
I reach the glo?ry land,
Just trust?ing Him each mo?ment
For His help di?vine,
Confessing Je?sus,
My bless?èd Sav?ior.

He’s filled my life with bless?ing,
And changed my heart’s de?sire;
To wit?ness for Him day by day
My soul is all on fire;
Full well I know that dan?gers
Lie thick?ly round my way,
But keep?ing sight of Je?sus Christ
I can?not go as?tray.

So more and more of Je?sus
I’m learn?ing ev?ery day;
With such a pre?cious friend and guide
I’ll fol?low all the way;
I can re?flect His im?age,
And eve?ry?one around
My tes?ti?mo?ny clear shall know:
The Sav?ior I have found.
