Captured By Grace
CAPTURED BY GRACE
You were the one that called me out
You were the one who brought my new birth about
Still for some reason my heart does not shout
Could it be that I am not walking in the Spirit but out.
For years I have been running away from within
Afraid to approach you bound by my sin
Then I heard about something that could change my life
I was captured by grace and I ceased from my strife.
Come boldly my child out goes the call
He gives mercy and grace it is available to all
Finding help for my battle against doubt and fear
Resisting the devil by faith I draw near.
Living under grace victorious over sin
Believing by faith that he lives within
Redeemed by his blood ransomed from the fall
By trusting in Jesus I can overcome it all.
I was captured by his mercy and grace
Transformed by his Spirit empowered for the race
Victorious with him as my conquering king
My heart now shouts his praises I sing.
