Ramey Whalen – Grace lyrics

VERSE 1:
I turned Your promise into a
Commandment I could never keep

I took Your word and thought that I
Should earn all that You gave for free

I turned my inheritance into
A treasure I could not afford

My righteousness a worthless badge on
Filthy rags I'm throwing off!

CHORUS:
So I will worship, I will praise
Love has called me by name
Your perfect work, Your perfect way
Father, Thank You for Your grace

VERSE 2:
I ate the apple everyday
Caught between the truth and shame

I'll wash my own feet. thank You no,
My Savior shouldn't take that place

My heart was pure only in that
I lusted after holiness

Not knowing that Your righteousness
Is all a gift, not a command

CHORUS:
So I will worship, I will praise
Love has called me by name
Your perfect work, Your perfect way
Father, Thank You for Your grace

BRIDGE:
All my righteousness
All my pride and strength
Only filthy rags
Only heavy chains

I am free from sin
I am free from death
Where the cross begins
There my striving ends

Taking up the truth
Laying down my way
I believe Your word
I receive Your grace

Covered by the blood
Justified by faith
I will sing Your praise

TAG CHORUS:
Hallelujah saved by grace
Hallelujah praise Your name
Hallelujah saved by grace
Hallelujah praise Your name
