Christian Hymns & Songs "Not In Me" lyrics

Not In Me

No list of sins I have not done,No list of virtues I pursue,No list of those I am not like,Can earn myself a place with You.O God! Be merciful to me—I am a sinner through and through!My only hope of righteousnessIs not in me, but only You.

No humble dress, no fervent prayer,No lifted hands, no tearful song,No recitation of the truthCan justify a single wrong.My righteousness is Jesus' life,My debt was paid by Jesus' death,My weary load was borne by HimAnd he alone can give me rest.

No separation from the world,No work I do, no gift I give,Can cleanse my conscience, cleanse my hands;I cannot cause my soul to live.But Jesus died and rose again—The pow'r of death is overthrown!My God is merciful to meAnd merciful in Christ alone.

My righteousness is Jesus' life,My debt was paid by Jesus' death,My weary load was borne by HimAnd he alone can give me rest.
