I thought I was the greatest,
I boasted of my wonderful deeds,
But God looked in my poor garden,
And just saw a bunch of weeds.

My pride had left me blinded,
I put my works before His Grace,
Trying to deserve my Salvation,
Was really just so out of place.

But in His mercy God awoke me,
And said "Look to my dear Son,
Trust in His precious Blood only,
For you His Sacrifice was done."
