If you find it in your heart, can I be forgiven?

Guess I owe you some kind of apology

I've escaped death so many times, I know I'm only living

By the saving grace that's over me

By this time, I'd a-thought that I would be sleeping

In a pine box for all eternity

My faith keeps me alive, but I still be weeping

For the saving grace that's over me

Well, the death of life, then come the resurrection

Wherever I am welcome is where I will be

I put all my confidence in Him, my sole protection

Is the saving grace that's over me

Well, the devil's shining light, it can be most blinding

But to search for love, that ain't no more than vanity

As I look around this world, all that I'm finding

Is the saving grace that's over me

The wicked know no peace, and you just can't fake it

There's only one road and it leads to calvary

It gets discouraging at times, but I know I'll make it

By the saving grace that's over me
