Grace Wins

In my weakest moment, I see (Cm)You

shaking Your head in (Ab)disgrace.

I can read the disappointment written all over Your face.

Here come those whispers in my (Cm7)ear,

saying, "Who do you think you (Ab)are?

Looks like you're on your own from here,

'cause grace could never reach that far.

But (Ab)in the shadow of that (Eb)shame,

beat down by all the (Cm)blame,

I hear You call my (Bb)name,

saying, "It's not over."

And (Ab)my heart starts to beat so (Eb)loud now,

drowning out the (Cm)doubt.

I'm down, but I'm not (Bb)out.

There's a (Eb)war between guilt and grace,

and they're (Ab)fighting for a sacred space.

But I'm (Bb)living proof:

grace wins (Ab)ev'ry time.

(Absus2)No more (Eb)lying down in death's defeat.

Now I'm (Ab)rising up in victory,

singing: (Bb)Hallelujah!

Grace wins (Ab)ev'ry time.

(Eb)Words can't describe the way it feels when mercy floods a thirsty soul,

the broke inside begins to (Bb)heal

and grace returns what guilty stole.

And (Ab)in the shadow of my (Eb)shame,

beat down by all the (Cm)blame,

I hear You call my (Bb)name,

saying, "It's not over."

And (Ab)my heart starts to beat so (Eb)loud now,

drowning out the (Cm)doubt.

I'm down, but I'm not (Bb)out.

There's a (Eb)(Absus2)For the (Eb)prodigal son,

grace wins.

For the (Absus2)woman at the well,

grace wins.

For the (Cm7)blind man and the beggar,

grace wins.

For (Absus2)always and forever, grace wins.

For the (Eb)lost out on the street,
