Lyrics

Grace Like a River

Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me
I feel Grace like a river
Grace like a river
Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me

I woke up this mornin?, not feelin? so great
I woke up this mornin? already late
Panic tried to come on in for a stay
But I said that?s a game that I won?t play
So I settled in and I started to pray
And suddenly it felt like a brand new day

Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me
I feel Grace like a river
Grace like a river
Rainin? down on me

Stepped out in the world to start my work for the day
Stepped out in the world and continued to pray
I knew things that day could just really get rough
And through it all I know His Grace was enough
Those everlasting arms will just never tire
Of holding me those days I?m pushed to the wire

Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me
I feel Grace like a river
Grace like a river
Rainin? down on me

The evening came around and I looked at the stacks
Of dirty dishes, laundry, no time to relax
The kids were yelling, the dog ran away
I had to pay those bills that were due yesterday
All I could do was take the time to pray
Then Grace came in and settled in for a stay

Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me
I feel Grace like a river
Grace like a river
Rainin? down on me
Rainin? down on me
