Only Grace Remains

Verse 1 I’ve been running with the weight of the world on my shoulders Trying to be strong, trying not to break Every step I take, I hear the whispers louder Telling me I’m too far gone to change Pre-Chorus But You don’t see the scars the way I do You see a child still worth pursuing Chorus When the lights fade out and the noise is gone When my best intentions still fall short I don’t stand here by the things I’ve done I stand forgiven at the foot of the cross Every failure, every stain Falls away when You call my name I’m not who I was, I’m not who I’ll be Only grace remains in me Verse 2 I’ve been building up these walls of self-reliance Praying You won’t see what’s underneath But mercy breaks through my defiance Love that’s stronger than my disbelief Pre-Chorus You don’t measure me by where I’ve been You meet me here and draw me in Chorus When the lights fade out and the noise is gone When my best intentions still fall short I don’t stand here by the things I’ve done I stand forgiven at the foot of the cross Every failure, every stain Falls away when You call my name I’m not who I was, I’m not who I’ll be Only grace remains in me Bridge No more hiding, no more shame No more striving for a worth You gave I lay my crown, I lift my hands I am Yours, just as I am Every chain is breaking now Hope is rising from the ground Final Chorus When the night is long and the road is steep When my faith is just a mustard seed I will trust the work You’ve begun You’re not finished with this heart of mine Every failure, every stain Was never stronger than Your name I’m not who I was, I’m not who I’ll be Only grace remains Only grace remains Only grace remains in me Outro I am Yours, I am redeemed Only grace remains in me
