"It Must be Grace"

I have been to several Women of Faith conferences over the years and this last one was on Grace. I bought their worship CD and wanted to share one of my favorite songs off of it. I love the words because they describe so perfectly the understanding I have about God’s grace in my life.

How could One, One such as You be longing for me?
What would I, I have to give that You’d ever need?
Why, no matter how far I run
Do You pursue me?
Why, when I fall time after time
Do You still love me?
What could make You love me?

I, I don’t understand what is it You see
In the heart of someone like me
When I let You down but You still believe
And prove Your love time and again and again
All I can say is it must be grace

You know me, my wretched heart longs to be free
You heal me with only a touch
How can that be?
Tears falling like rain
On this dry and weary soul
Flooding my heart with a love
That will never let go

I, I don’t understand what is it You see
In the heart of someone like me
When I let You down but You still believe
And prove Your love time and again and again
All I can say is it must be grace

Undeserving so unworthy

I, I don’t understand what is it You see
In the heart of someone like me
When I let You down but You still believe
And prove Your love time and again and again
All I can say is it must be grace

You’re so holy
And offer to me – grace

I can’t always understand why God would love a sinner like myself – I just know that He does and I am grateful to be His child given an amazing gift of grace.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believed in Him should not perish but have everlasting Life.
