By Grace

i could not ever think  
that my life would ever sink

in the depths of guilt and shame 
it was never my fault only you to blame 

my heart i could not trust 
because it lied to me to much

how surrender was never an option

but you turned that around 
and now that i have found 

a love that could fill the the emptiness
that came with your loving grace 

there are no more lies to be told 
no more layers to unfold 

i have you in my heart and i love you

the things i went through 
are the things i have given to you

how you died upon the cross for my sins
no more pain 
no more tears 
all of my fears are gone away

i will give my life to you and you 
use it the way you do 

there is nothing on this earth 
i want more then rebirth and new

i have you in my heart i have freedom
