Here's my version
Prevenient Grace (Amazing Grace by John Newton)
Prevenient Grace,
How sweet the sound
That enabled a prince like me
I once was lost, but I came around
Was blind, yet still I see.
And another classic...
I Cleansed Me from Sin (Revive Us Again)
I praise You, O God!
For giving Me hope,
For Jesus Who died,
And left me the soap.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
I Cleansed me from sin.
We praise Thee, O God!
For Thy Spirit of light,
Who hath shown us our Savior,
With prevenient eyesight
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
I Cleansed me from sin.
All glory and praise
To the Lamb that was slain,
Who hath borne all our sins,
Yet I scrubbed every stain.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
I Cleansed me from sin.
Some glory and praise
To the God in my mind,
Who hast brought me, but taught me,
To scrub my be-hind.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Mine the glory.

Who wrote this:
Lord, I thank thee I am not like those poor presumptuous Calvinists. Lord, I was born with a glorious free-will; I was born with power by which I can turn to thee of myself; I have improved my grace. If everybody had done the same with their grace that I have, they might all have been saved. Lord, I know thou dost not make us willing if we are not willing ourselves. Thou givest grace to everybody; some do not improve it, but I do. There are many that will go to hell as much bought with the blood of Christ as I was; they had as much of the Holy Ghost given to them; they had as good a chance, and were as much blessed as I am. It was not thy grace that made us to differ; I know it did a great deal, still I turned the point; I made use of what was given me, and others did notthat is the difference between me and them.
No Googling....

(Pelagianism is the natural heresy of zealous Christians who are not interested in theology. J.I.P.)
