Lyrics The Man Who Needed Grace - Matthew West

The Man Who Needed Grace

Once upon a time, there was a man who needed grace
With a trail of bad decisions left behind him
He had a heart full of guilty and a head hung in shame
Feeling like forgiveness could never find him
But then a light broke through the dark
And the voice he heard said, «Who you were
Well, that’s not who you are anymore»
It’s not the end
No, this is just where second chances begin
Oh-oh, now I’m forever changed
And until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Now the man who needed grace still knows how to make a mess
There’s never been a day that You found me perfect
All the grace just keeps on showin' me exactly what it is
A gift that goes to those who don’t deserve it
And nothing I could ever do
Compares to what’s been done for me
I’m free and all because of You
My debt is paid, my sins are gone
And my soul can’t stop singing this victory song
Oh-oh, now I’m forever changed
And until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Yeah-yeah
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
I once was lost, but now I’m found
I once was blind, but now I see
Let all the saints and sinners sing
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
I once was lost, but now I’m found
I once was blind, but now I see
Let all the saints and sinners sing
Oh-oh, now I’m forever changed
And until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Yeah, I’m singin', oh-oh, now I’m forever changed
And until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Oh, until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Yeah, until my days are done, I’ll be telling everyone
About the God who loved the man who needed grace
Okay, can you hear yourselves?
Yes, yes
Okay, so the album’s over
And this is the part that people want, when Lulu and Delaney sing
You ready?
What are we singin' a song about?
Nick
Nick, our dog
Our dog, never had a song before 'til now, you ready?
Mm-hmm
One, two, three, four
Well, this is a story of a dog named Nick
We taught him not to bite and now he just licks
He’s mostly potty-trained, but still goes on the rug, hahaha
And we think he likes his groomer more than he likes us
Nick, you’re so fluffy
You’re just like a bunny, but you’re a puppy, oh-oh
Nick, your bad behavior makes us call the trainer
But we still love you 'cause you’re our Nick
Well, we brought you home on Christmas Eve
To be the only other boy in this family, that’s right
And that’s how you got your name Ol' Saint Nick
But you’re anything but a saint, we’re sure of this
That’s right, come on now
Oh, Nick, you’re so fluffy
You’re just like a bunny, but you’re a puppy
Ooh, Nick, your bad behavior makes us call the trainer
But we still love you 'cause you’re our Nick
Your bad behavior makes us call the trainer
But we still love you, you’re our Nick
Ha-ha-ha, he’s a good boy
You’re such a good boy
Boo, boo, ah-ooh
Hahaha, what?
Speak, Nick, speak
