If not for your grace
Carrying me
In every season,
Where would I be
If not for your grace
You came to my rescue
For your grace.
Grace like a river.
Whoa
I encourage you.
Think about it tonight, where would I be?
Where would I be
If not for your grace
Carrying in me
In every season
Where would I be
If not for your grace
You came to rescue
And I want to thank you
For your grace that restores,
Grace that redeems,
Grace that releases me to worship
Grace that repairs visions and dreams
(Visions and dreams)
Grace that releases miracles
Your grace
Grace like a river whoa oh oh whoa
Say where would I be
Where would I be
If not for your grace
Carrying in me
In every season (in every season)
(Oh where would I be) where would I be
If not for your grace
You came to rescue
And I want to thank you (And I want to thank you)
C'mon and thank Him tonight for you
Grace that restores
Grace that redeems
Grace that releases me to worship whoa oh
Grace that repairs (Visions and dreams)
(Visons and dreams)
Grace that releases miracles (miracles)
Your (Grace)
I dont know my life I see
Grace that restores
Grace that, redeems
Grace that releases me to worship
Grace that repairs
Visons and dreams
Grace that releases miralces
Grace that releases miralces
Grace that releases miralces
