Lyrics
John 8
Oh, the grace of my Lord
Surpasses all my understanding
Look how he covers me with his mercy!
There I stood, caught in the act
Held my breath for his judgment passing
But hear how he doesn?t speak when he?s listening
I am so flawed, I am failure walking
But he is able to make me a thing of beauty
He gets to the heart of me and says ?not guilty?
Oh, the grace of my Lord
Surpasses all my understanding
