(TU ESTABAS PENSANDO EN M)I
EN MI PECADO HUNDIDO
(TU GRACIA REVELASTE A MI)
CUANDO YO ESTABA PERDIDO
(TU ESTABAS PENSANDO EN MI)
EN MI PECADO HUNDIDO
PERSONALMENTE, CARA A CARA GRACIAS
POR TODO LO QUE HAS HECHO, GRACIAS
POR HABERME RESCATADO DEL NAUFRAGIO, GRACIAS
POR HABER DADO POR VIDA, GRACIAS
MIENTRAS YO ANDABA EN EL CAMINO AL DIA
VIVIA MI VERDAD DENTRO DE MI VIDA
EN MI OSCURIDAD VI UNA LUZ QUE ME DECIA
"YO SOY EL CAMINO, LA VERDAD Y LA VIDA".
TE ENCONTRE CUANDO NO TE BUSQUE
ABRISTE CUANDO NO TOQUE

The song "Gracias" by Semilla de Mostaza talks about the overwhelming feeling of gratitude towards God for all that He has done for the singer. It starts with the lyrics "When I was lost/ You were thinking of me/ In my sin, sunk/ You revealed your grace to me." The singer realizes that even when they were lost in sin, God never gave up on them and was always thinking of them. The chorus repeats the phrase "Gracias por darme tu amor" which means "Thank you for giving me your love" in Spanish. The singer wishes to thank God personally for everything He has done, and for rescuing them from a situation of destruction. The song talks about how the singer found God even when they were not actively searching for Him, and how God's grace was revealed to them even when they were not deserving of it.
The second verse talks about how the singer was found by God before they even knew they needed to be found. It says "How did you find me/ Before I searched for you/ Before I touched/ You opened the door wide." The songwriter believes that God had been searching for them before they even began their search for Him. The bridge talks about how God's love and grace woke the singer up from their darkness and allowed them to see the light of day. It says "Thanks for waking me up from my darkness/ And in the light of day seeing your gaze."
