On Grace I Stand
Benjah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I m shattered like some glass
Gather all I am
And holding you tight
Tell me why I run to sin
Not a one as righteousness
Love is what I need
So hold me tonight
Can you take away the pain that I feel inside
CHORUS:
I may have fallen down
A pick up off the ground
Lord has my hand so on grace I stand
I may have fallen down
A pick up off the ground
Lord has my hand so on grace I stand
(on grace I stand x2)
See me standing tall glowing with mercy
Undeserving love washes me pure
Only you restore my joy
Love is what I need
So hold me tonight
Can you take away the shame that s on my life
Can you take away the pain that I feel inside
CHORUS:
I may have fallen down
A pick up off the ground
Lord has my hand so on grace I stand
I may have fallen down
A pick up off the ground
Lord has my hand so on grace I stand
Oh, Ohh
Create in me a good heart and a new mind
Oh, Ohh
?...
Oh, Ohh
Remind me daily Lord of your loving kindness
Oh, Ohh
.?...
