No one is good apart from God,
For sin has brought us low;
And there is none good, no not one,
The Bible tells us so;
But when we come with humble hearts,
Repent of all our sins;
It makes a difference you know,
God makes us good within.
"A good man's steps" so says God's Word,
"Are ordered by the Lord;
And daily he may walk with God,
And be of one accord.
He was a good man, so we learn,
Full of the Holy Ghost;
And only can we goodness have,
When we make Christ our host.
No one is good apart from God,
We all have sinned, my dear;
We stand condemned because of sin,
Our souls are filled with fear;
But when we come as one of old,
And plead for mercy here;
Almighty God shall free our soul,
From every bitter fear.
