Grace Is

I once was confident I had the strength to run
To stay by your side until kingdom come
But the testing of my courage in fires of adversity
Proved that in my own strength I am still your enemy
Proved that in my own strength I am still your enemy

This sifting has revealed I’m not as good as I believed
But the end of myself is where I start to see
Yeah I’m a broken mess but that’s all that you need
To the poor in spirit you give the kingdom keys
To the poor in spirit you give the kingdom keys

Grace is a constant wind a blowin’
O’er the troubled waters of my soul
Faith is raising up a sail
Releasing the oars and letting go
I’m letting go

You call a man a rock when he’s but a fragile reed
You call a man to talk when he stutters in his speech
You hear a song when I can’t form a melody
You cause me to see through impossibilities
You cause me to see through impossibilities

Grace is a constant wind a blowin’
O’er the troubled waters of my soul
Faith is raising up a sail
Releasing the oars and letting go
I’m letting go
