Here I am, just a simple and shallow man
Nothing to drive me and nothing to loose
in a world as lost as a fish on dry land
Broken and bruised I wear my skin to cover all of my pains ad ugliness within
To keep out judging eyes and make myself look like a man
Here I stand just six feet tall never looking back at the things I've done
Afraid if I did that my facade would be shaken and that I would be lost and fall
In the depths of my wallowing and despair my tears were wiped away
Brushed off by a hand with no hold barred against me no grudges for the stabbing
And cursing of the Son but all in that moment was made free for me by the price of his blood
Grace, what an incomprehensible thing which fills my heart and mind overcoming me
as I a filthy beggar receive my salvation and the love he has for me
And in this all my life is made whole by the one man who could take it all
What else can I say? That when I fall and brake again I can be remade?
That when I turn and walk away that he still seeks after me, hungrily as a lover does
When I fall back to that sinful thing that I just cant let go he comforts me
To be a betrayer and a liar, saying I love him when I do just the opposite
To stand for his name in the faces of my friends and yet behind closed doors
I let emotions and life itself bend my will and break me back down again
That redeeming thing called grace with comes all the more as the word gives evidence
A gift I don’t deserve and cant accept for myself because of what I've done yet still he
Gives it freely, waiting, hoping that I come back to him
I cant understand this Son of Man a being so great and yet serving me despite my
Hate and distrust of all men and now I find myself aligned with him
because once again I feel his love and peace surround me as an avalanche never ending
I can only embrace and cry on his chest as my heart keeps breaking knowing what I've done To him
and yet he loves me, and his grace flows unending for me, and I am overwhelmed
Nothing to drive me and nothing to loose
in a world as lost as a fish on dry land
Broken and bruised I wear my skin to cover all of my pains ad ugliness within
To keep out judging eyes and make myself look like a man
Here I stand just six feet tall never looking back at the things I've done
Afraid if I did that my facade would be shaken and that I would be lost and fall
In the depths of my wallowing and despair my tears were wiped away
Brushed off by a hand with no hold barred against me no grudges for the stabbing
And cursing of the Son but all in that moment was made free for me by the price of his blood
