Time measured out my days Life carried me along In my soul I yearned to follow God But knew I'd never be so strong I looked hard at this world To learn how heaven could be gained Just to end where I began Where human effort is all in vain Chorus Were it not for grace I can tell you where I'd be Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere With my salvation up to me I know how that would go The battles I would face Forever running but losing this race Were it not for grace Verse 2 So here is all my praise Expressed with all my heart Offered to the Friend who took my place And ran a course I could not start And when He saw in full Just how much His love would cost He still went the final mile between me and heaven So I would not be lost Repeat Chorus Forever running but losing this race Were it not for grace

Were It Not For Grace - Larnelle Harris Time measured out my days Life carried me along In my soul I yearned to follow God But knew I'd never be so strong I looked hard at this world To learn how heaven could be gained Just to end where I began Where human effort is all in vain Chorus Were it not for grace I can tell you where I'd be Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere With my salvation up to me I know how that would go The battles I would face Forever running but losing this race Were it not for grace So here is all my praise Expressed with all my heart Offered to the Friend who took my place And ran a course I could not start And when He saw in full Just how much His would cost He still went the final mile between me and heaven So I would not be lost Repeat Chorus Forever running but losing this race Were it not for grace
I finally found out that this is on a CD entitled "My Redeemer Lives" - Greg Nelson Singers. Hope this helps. I ordered it and received it today. It is the same version.
Hi secondome227! It's sounds like it could be Life Action Revival Ministries. I played the cd I have of theirs along side the one on youtube and it played word for word, sound for sound. It would be their 'Broken and Free' cd. We had this ministry at our church and it totally changed my life. Hope this helps you! God Bless!
@psalmC147V1 - Please tell me where I can get a copy of this beautiful song and if Sounding Joy is singing this? I can't locate it anywhere on the Internet. I want this so badly!! Thanks.
Can someone PLEASE tell me who is singing this and where I can get a copy? I am desperate to get this recording....it is so beautiful but I cannot find it anywhere on the Internet. Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
Praise God blessed his faithfulness ,,,
golden voice for Jesus
This song is best for God's grace
Time measured out my days
Life carried me along
In my soul I yearned to follow God
But knew I'd never be so strong
I looked hard at this world
To learn how heaven could be gained
Just to end where I began
Where human effort is all in vain
Chorus
Were it not for grace
I can tell you where I'd be
Wandering down some pointless road to nowhere
With my salvation up to me
I know how that would go
The battles I would face
Forever running but losing this race
Were it not for grace
Verse 2
So here is all my praise
Expressed with all my heart
Offered to the Friend who took my place
And ran a course I could not start
And when He saw in full
Just how much His love would cost
He still went the final mile between me and heaven
So I would not be lost
Repeat Chorus
Forever running but losing this race
Were it not for grace

This song is a reminder for everyone of us. Thank You Lord for your Grace Alone. Glorify your name in Highest praises.
In my soul I yearned to follow God but knew i'd never be so strong. :'-(
none of us have the strength on our own, but TOGETHER with God and fellow believers, we are strong
Thank God for His grace in Christ !!!!!
I love this version. I heard this before but the version I heard sounded like beauty and the beast theme song.
Thank you for posting.

Is it true that Larnelle Harris wrote this song? I saw it on an earlier comment.
