Lyrics Facing Grace - Saints Can Lie, Ryan Kirby

Facing Grace

Humbled, I cry out in pain
In sorrow, I beg just to see your face
It takes this to bring me down to my knees
Lost in sin, desperate to be saved
I scream!
Tears running down my eyes
I used You as a mask to cover the lies
I’ve tried living this life on my own!
Oh God, I’ve never felt so alone
Lord I ask you for thousands of second chances
This trail of hurt it follows me
What doesn’t kill you
Oh, it condemns you
And it brings me to my knees
How can You forgive me?
Torn apart by my arrogance
I made the mistake of trying to escape your grace, now I know
I’ve dug myself deeper in the grave and I fell flat on my face!
(Ryan Kirby)
I’m done pushing you away!
You are better, you are greater!
God!
Take my hurt
God!
Take my tears!
And forgive me!
Lord I ask you for thousands of second chances
This trail of hurt it follows me
What doesn’t kill you
Oh, it condemns you
And it brings me to my knees!
This trail of hurt follows me
Why do I keep failing you?
Why do I keep falling short?
(Ryan Kirby)
Falling short!
Here I am asking your forgiveness!
Please tell me this pain will go away!
After all I’ve put you through, you still forgive me
Now I know that you truly do love me!
