Your Grace
Nathan Feuerstein Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I feel like I'm as close as I'll ever be to you and in the next moment, it's like I'm running from you. And I'm sorry. That's not how it's supposed to be. Sometimes that's how it happens. Forgive me.

Yeah I feel lost in my mind
Just another pain in my head
I feel so broken inside with memories I'm trying to forget
I don't feel like I used to, matter of fact, not even close
I don't feel right yet I choose to go into a place I don't know
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm not

But I feel like I'm out of control
And God I need you right now, I should have never let you go

And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
I took it out of your hands, I took a chance
But how am I supposed to see
When I'm blinded, when I'm broken
Looking for a way to escape
I can't find it, but then I'm reminded
Lord, of your grace
Of your grace

I thought I was fine, I guess not
If I was, I wouldn't feel this way
If I was okay, and I was so perfect
Why would I feel so ashamed
I'm no liar, in my head, screaming I don't need any help
I say I'm trying, yet in the end, I'm only telling lies to myself
I say I want answers, I'm complaining
It looks like I got problems, which I've got them
I seem to only blame them on you
It's like I don't know what to do

And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
This is ain't how it's supposed to be
I took it out of your hands, I took a chance
But how am I supposed to see
When I'm blinded, when I'm broken
Looking for a way to escape
I can't find it, but then I'm reminded
Lord, of your grace
Of your grace

Lord, forgive me, I feel so cold
I don't wanna cry, I don't wanna
I don't know how to say this easy
I don't see the things that I used to know
Looking for a reason, wondering why I'm breathing
Wondering why my mom had to die, Lord Jesus
I don't understand this
I feel like I keep falling down,
Lord, please help me up
I've had enough

And now I don't know who I am
This was never my plan
This
When I'm blinded, when I'm broken
Looking for a way to escape
I can't find it, but then I'm reminded

Lord, of your grace
Of your grace
