By Grace I'm Saved

As the church celebrates Reformation Day, I remember once more this day as the anniversary of the day God saved me.  I thank Him for parents who brought me to the font as a baby for Him to wash me, forgive me, robe me, and for sustaining my faith these 39 years.

By grace!  On this I'll rest when dying;

In Jesus' promise I rejoice;

For though I know my heart's condition,

I also know my Savior's voice.

My heart is glad, all grief has flown

Since I am saved by grace alone.

(LSB 566 v.6)
