Lyrics
Saving Grace
In the dawn?s early light,
The first eyes I see
Are the ones I know so well
Looking back at me.
I try to speak in tongues,
There?s only a wordless song;
A sweet melody of gracious smiles.
You are my saving grace.
Give me your saving grace.
In the desert of my night
You are my water;
In the world of darkness
You are my light.
I believe in the mystery,
I believe in the faith;
But what I want right now
Is just to touch your face.
You are my saving grace?
I could never let you go,
I could never chain you down;
On your heart of wings we?ll fly
The far shores of the sea;
Come to me in silence,
Quiet my restless soul.
Stay with me forever
And you know I want to be?
In your saving grace
Ó Ian McMurray
