Like Abraham, like Paul
saved by faith, by God’s grace
freed from the law alone
living, growing in faith
under Christ’s covenant
saved not by works,
for I will fall short;
saved by the love of God
given to me because I am
accepted by my faith
my belief in him
Turning from that struggle
the not measuring up
finding peace instead
in your everlasting love
