I am not forgetting that at all. Salvation cannot be by grace alone if it by faith alone. Saying it is by 5 "alones" is contradictory.
But you may it say it that way if you want. That is man's doctrinal way of saying it. I will just say as Paul says that we are saved by grace through faith and not of works.

Amen.
Romans 5:1-2
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
Some here are just parroting the old, stale, recycled words from the council of Trent.
"Canon 9. If anyone says that the sinner is justified by faith alone, meaning that nothing else is required to cooperate in order to obtain the grace of justification, and that it is not in any way necessary that he be prepared and disposed by the action of his own will, let him be anathema."

Romans 3:24
Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; 26To declare, I say, at this time His righteousness: that He might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.
27Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith.

Ok, but we know that we can't keep the law. That's why Jesus came. 
Romans 7:20-23
King James Version
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
