Dan Macaulay Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

To the one who made all that I know
Who am I
That You should hear my song
To the one who my whole life I owe
I have fallen short
For so long

Yet You patiently

Give to me
Your mercy and Your grace
And I don�t pretend
To understand
I only stand amazed
I stand amazed

You are amazing
Holy
You know everything
And You still love me
You are always
Faithful
And worthy of praise
For now and forevermore

And I will ever give my praise
To the one who set the stars in place

And who saved me
And who saved me
