Except for Grace

You've lost it all your dignity and pride
A sinking soul
Swimming in the tears you've cried
Alone and hopeless without a word to say
'Cause guilt has taken it all away

Except for grace and your faith
And knowing that God's love
Will forgive mistakes
There's nothing that can clear
Your painful past bear your bitter pain
Or could ever take your place
Except for grace we've all stood
Right where you're at facing the shame
Of failures and regrets leaving us empty
Broken and afraid to dream
'Cause sin has stripped us clean
Of everything

Except for grace and our faith
And knowing that God's love
Will forgive mistakes
There's nothing that can clear
Our painful past bear our bitter pain
Or could ever take our place
Except for grace

The price is much too high
For us to ever pay we could try forever
And find no other way

Except for grace and our faith
And knowing that God's love
Will forgive mistakes
There's nothing that can clear
Our painful past bear our bitter pain
Or could ever take our place
Nothing else could take our place
Except for grace except for grace
