Grace Is Enough
Don Moen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Done out of insecurity
And credit many conversations
To my immaturity
And while I’m misunderstood
You are understanding me
And showing me
How grace is enough
For everything that I’ve done right
Seems like a thousand I’ve done wrong
And I keep on losing count
Of all the times my flesh has won
And when the light of Christ that’s in me
Is overshadowed by the fall
You’re showing me
How grace is enough
When I feel unworthy
And so undeserving
Chorus:
Still I can come, just as I am
For I find Your love
Is free of condition
So I will run to Your wide open arms
Where I am accepted
And I am forgiven
Grace is enough for me
Your grace is enough for me
I’ve been quick at passing judgment
When I’m worthy of conviction
And the times I’ve measured virtue
Only based on my religion
But theology it seems
It’s not the things that’s saving me
Your are showing me
A grace that’s enough
When I feel unworthy
And so undeserving
(Chorus)
Bridge:
Though I was blind, now I see
Sweet is the sound
Of Your grace over me
You said it all on the Cross
Your grace goes beyond
All that I’ve done
When I feel unworthy
And so undeserving
You love me beyond
All my failing and hurting
It’s not who I am
But who I can be
And I know You are working
Your purpose in me
(Chorus)
Your grace is enough
More than enough
Your grace is enough for me

I can boast to many works
I have bragged about my achievements and accomplishments
Done out of insecurity
These actions were motivated by my lack of confidence
And credit many conversations
I have attributed much of my success to conversations I had
To my immaturity
However, looking back, I realize that these conversations were a result of my foolishness
And while I’m misunderstood
People often don't understand me
You are understanding me
But You, God, know me completely
And showing me
You are teaching me
How grace is enough
That Your grace is sufficient for me
For everything that I’ve done right
Despite the good things I've done,
Seems like a thousand I’ve done wrong
I've done countless wrong things
And I keep on losing count
In fact, I can't even keep track of them all anymore
Of all the times my flesh has won
My human nature has caused me to fail time and time again
And when the light of Christ that’s in me
Even when I have faith in You,
Is overshadowed by the fall
I still struggle with sin
You’re showing me
You are revealing to me
How grace is enough
That Your grace is all I need
When I feel unworthy
During times when I don't feel like I deserve anything
And so undeserving
When I know I am not entitled to forgiveness
Still I can come, just as I am
Despite all this, You accept me as I am
For I find Your love
This is because I know that Your love
Is free of condition
Is not dependent on any condition of mine
So I will run to Your wide open arms
As a result, I will come to You freely and confidently
Where I am accepted
Knowing that I am fully accepted by You
And I am forgiven
And that You have forgiven me
Grace is enough for me
I don't need anything else, because Your grace is sufficient
I’ve been quick at passing judgment
I have been too quick to judge others
When I’m worthy of conviction
And in truth, I have been the one who deserves to be convicted
And the times I’ve measured virtue
I also used to measure goodness
Only based on my religion
But I relied solely on my religious practices
But theology it seems
Yet, theology tells me
It’s not the things that’s saving me
That I am not saved by my good works
Your are showing me
You are teaching me
A grace that’s enough
That Your grace is all I need
Though I was blind, now I see
I was once lost, but now I have found my way
Sweet is the sound
The sound of Your grace
Of Your grace over me
Is precious to me
You said it all on the Cross
You showed the full extent of Your love by dying on the cross
Your grace goes beyond
Your grace extends farther than I can imagine
All that I’ve done
And covers all my sin
You love me beyond
Your love is more than I can comprehend
All my failing and hurting
Even when I fall short and suffer
It’s not who I am
My mistakes don't define me
But who I can be
I can be the person You created me to be
And I know You are working
And I trust that You are working
Your purpose in me
To fulfill Your plan in my life
Your grace is enough
Your grace is sufficient for me
More than enough
And it is more than I could ever ask for
Your grace is enough for me
Because of Your grace, I don't need anything else

@terranger
Don Moen is still such an anointed song writer and worship leader after all these years..... This song reminds me that our Lord Jesus' grace is enough and His love for us is perfect.... There's nothing we can do to make Him love us more, nor nothing we have done or will do wrong in the future that will cause Him to "unlove" us or leave us.... For He promised that "He will never leave nor forsake us" - Heb 13:5 Thank you bro/sis for uploading beautiful song... I'm ministered by it ;-) .... Sha
