Blinded By Your Grace Pt. 2
Stormzy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I said a prayer this morning
I prayed I will find a way
To another day
I was so afraid
'Til you came and saved
You came and saved me

And the rain was pouring
'Cause the sun faded away
I'm in a better place
No longer afraid
Blinded by your grace
You came and saved me

Amazing grace that saved the wretch
And now prayers all I got (saved the wretch)
Care is there
I say a spade's a spade
If you're digging me or not
I'm a heal the world with words (amen)
You go heal a load of hurt (amen)
And I'm alright, 'cause my God's almighty

I ask for forgiveness
I sold my soul with my business
I sold it all and you're my witness
I even brought in my siblings
Plus I aborted my kids, then
I hear their cries in the distance
That's something I have to live with
Still I reply, "I'm a Christian"
I repent, I repent
Sacrifice all my bread
Give my time up for lent
Every night say my prayers
'Cause sometimes I forget
And I swear every time I shouldn't
And 'cause of you I care every time I shouldn't
But God made man in the light
Of his own image
So I shine bright by my woman
She my better side
And my sun's like very bright
And my sky's like heaven's sight
And I drop down on both knees
And I raise my arms to exercise my
Love prayer, thug prayer
When I die, let me get a white dove prayer
If God's working overtime
I shall not want unless I grind

I said a prayer this morning
I prayed I will find a way
To another day
I was so afraid
'Til you came and saved
You came and saved me

And the rain was pouring
'Cause the sun faded away
I'm in a better place
No longer afraid
Blinded by your grace
You came and saved me

Yeah
You saved me, yeah
You came and saved me
Oh, ooh, yeah
Yeah

I'm blinded by your grace
Every night and every day
And I was lost, yeah
But ever since you found me

I'm blinded by your grace
Through the darkness you came
And I'll be alright
With you by my side

I can't escape you
I can't replace you
So don't walk away from me now

Lord I've been broken
Although I'm not worthy

One time for the Lord
And one time for the cause
And one round of applause
One time for Fraser T Smith on the chords
I think we got one, I stay prayed up then I get the job done
Yeah, I'm Abigail's yout, but I'm God's son
But I'm up now, look at what God's done
Now I real talk, look at what God did
On the main stage runnin' 'round topless
I phone Flipz then I tell him that we got this
This is God's plan, they can never stop this
Like, wait right there, could you stop my verse?
You saved this kid and I'm not your first
It's not by blood and it's not by birth
But oh my God, what a God I serve
Lord I've been broken
Although I'm not worthy
You fixed me
I'm Blinded By Your Grace
You came and saved me
Lord I've been broken
Although I'm not worthy
You fixed me
Now I'm Blinded By Your Grace
You came and saved me
I said a prayer this morning
I prayed I would find a way
To another day, I was so afraid
'Til you came and saved, you came and saved me
And the rain was pouring, 'cause the sun faded away
Now I'm in a better place, no longer afraid
Blinded By Your Grace, you came and saved me, yeah
I said a prayer this morning, I prayed I would find a way
To another day, I was so afraid

@Yoyoyo224

Can you explain the word
Begotten?

@majestyhype9605

@@Yoyoyo224 the actual literal translation is 'one and only'. Christ is not begotten as he is not created, he is the one and only son of God however

@nthebear1144

Amen
