Anyway
In the song "Anyway" by Lonnie Hunter & Structure, the lyrics address the theme of grace and mercy from a spiritual perspective. The first verse explains the concepts of grace and mercy as two different ways in which one can receive blessings from God. Grace represents a gift bestowed on someone who may not necessarily deserve it. Mercy, on the other hand, is gentle treatment or forgiveness for an offense that might warrant punishment. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Still You blessed me anyway" four times to emphasize the generosity of God and His ability to bless and forgive despite human shortcomings.
The second verse highlights the human tendency to make mistakes and fall short of God's expectations. The song acknowledges this reality with the phrase "I've fallen short of Your word." Despite what is acknowledged, the chorus still rings out with the phrase "Still You blessed me anyway" and repeats it twice to emphasize God's unwavering generosity. The bridge portion of the song shifts from a personal perspective of the singer to the outward expressions of gratitude towards God. The singer acknowledges the countless times God has blessed him, and he thanks God for the second chances and the opportunity to receive grace and mercy in the future.

I needed to hear this. My 9 month old son was just carried away by God and his Precious Angels. My son had a weak heart from birth and spent his little life in the hospital. I knew God would give him the strength but I was weak. I just am so lost with everything. May my little buddy rest assured. my first born child. please pray for me and my family. And my own son Jaiden Jabari Johnson. 04/23/16- 12/01/16. Lord I'm so unworthy but I ask you to bless my family and I anyway
