Justification not by Works. Rom. 3. 19-23, 28

1 Vain are the hopes the sons of men
  On their own works have built;
  Their hearts by nature all unclean,
  And all their actions guilt.

2 Let Jew and Gentile stop their mouths,
  Without a murmuring word;
  And the whole race of Adam stand
  Guilty before the Lord.

3 In vain we ask God’s righteous law
  To justify us now,
  Since to convince and to condemn
  Is all the law can do.

4 Jesus, how glorious is thy grace!
  When in thy name we trust,
  Our faith receives a righteousness
  That makes the sinner just.
