Never Ending Grace

I don’t understand
How you can love such a broken man
I’ve shoved your love back in your face
Still you give me your never ending grace

How
Tell me How
You still love me
Why
Tell me Why 
You still love me

I’m among the worst of them
I don’t want to think about 
Where I’ve been
Grace is so hard to accept 
When love is what I left

I’ve failed so many times
I’ve spoken so many lies
Still you grant me peace
Love is what you preach
Your love is all I need
By myself I can’t succeed 

How
Tell me How
You still love me
Why
Tell me Why 
You still love me

This sin
Is tearing through the skin
Why won’t it stop
I cry
I beg
I need this to end
I need to turn from this
I’ve lost her kiss
This hate burns within
I’m dying from all my sin

I don’t understand
How you can love such a broken man
I’ve shoved your love back in your face
Still you give me your never ending grace

How
Tell me How
You still love me
Why
Tell me Why 
You still love me

Your love is chasing my heart
I know you are my brand new start
I’m walking down a different road
I need to chase your throne
You are love
This is heaven’s dove 

I don’t understand
How you can love such a broken man
I've shoved your love back in your face
Still you give me your never ending grace
