Lyrics

Neither do I condemn thee,
O words of wondrous grace;
Thy sins were born upon the cross,
Believe, and go in peace.

Refrain

Neither do I condemn thee,
O sing it o’er and o’er;
Neither do I condemn thee,
Go and sin no more.

Neither do I condemn thee,
For there is therefore now
No condemnation for thee,
As at the cross you bow.

Refrain

Neither do I condemn thee,
I came not to condemn;
I came from God to save thee,
And turn thee from thy sin.

Refrain

Neither do I condemn thee,
O praise the God of grace;
O praise His Son our Sav­ior,
For this His word of peace.
