Grace
for my independent self feeding off lies and trying to live on my own
Grace
to pull me back to the throne
Grace
because I say what I'm doing is divine,
but the reality is
those plans are all mine
For my glory, for my fame,
but instead He gave up His name
Came to earth and
bore a cross for my shame
Grace
because I know I don't deserve it
Yet
I'm still trying to earn it
Living as an orphan
instead of a child
No longer lost, because for me
He was meek and mild
Lamb of God, slain
On Him all wrath was lain
So I could be free,
grace covers my iniquity
Grace
because I say I am strong
But really, it's His grace
that carries me along
Grace
because all that's left to see
is the cross as I cry,
have mercy on me
Grace because it's free,
and the beauty is I can never earn or deserve it
Grace that has set me free
Grace that says I'm redeemed
