Not In Me

V1 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 righteousness Is not in me, but only You V2 No humble dress, no fervent prayer No lifted hands no tearful song No recitation of the truth Can justify a single wrong My righteousness is Jesus’ life My debt was paid by Jesus death My weary load was borne by Him And He alone can give me rest V3 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 me And merciful in Christ alone T And He alone can give me rest
