All That I was, My Sin, My Guilt

All that I was, my sin, my guilt,
my dealt was all my own;
all that I am I owe to Thee,
my gracious God, alone.

The evil of my former state
was mine, and only mine;
the good in which I now rejoice
is Thine, and only Thine.

The darkness of my former state,
the bondage - all was mine
the light of life in which I walk,
the liberty is Thine.

Thy grace first made me feel my sin,
and taught me to believe;
then, in believing, peace I found,
and now in Christ I live.

All that I am while here on earth,
all that I hope to be,
when Jesus comes and glory dawns,
I owe it, Lord, to Thee.

Horatius Bonar, 1808-89
