For the Grace of God

Thank-you lord, for taking me out of this wasteland
thank-you lord, for opening my heart to your love
thank-you lord, for giving your life, so i should live
As you watch I'am safe, until you carry me home
Lord, in you i gain my strenght
For you i shall, shout to the hills
In you i stand tall, and sure
From you i gain wisdom, and share with the world
You are the rock of my salvation
In you my life matter's,I'am worthy
MY GOD of hope, MY GOD of love
MY GOD of mercy, MY GOD above
You sent your son, to die for me
You only ask, i seek my identity
With your grace, I've found my way
I'll be with you, come judgement day
"there but for the grace of god i go"
