GRACE

GRACE

Faith fantastic, forgiven child, Spinning spastic, screaming wild
Waves of sorrow, winds of pain, Washed away by grace’s rain
Dance with me awhile, hold me closer to your heart
Embrace me with your smile , let the healing find its start
Kiss me deep into my soul, tell me you will never leave
Fill up all the empty holes, Give me something to believe

I wore my heart out on my sleeve. Learned to walk, forgot to breathe
This 3-ton monkey on my back, it fails to help pick up the slack
And on and on and on we go, just where we stop is when we’ll know
That all the pleasure of this earth, has nested here and given birth
To all that’s wrong, to all that’s bad. It took the joy and made it sad
And man in search of pure elation
Has muddled up perfect creation
It’s a long way up when you have to crawl
But it’s further down when you deny your fall.



Please……open up my eyes
Shove truth into my face
Please……listen to my cries
Work me over with your grace
