In my weakest moment I see you<\/span>
\n Shaking your head in disgrace<\/span>
\n I can read the disappointment<\/span>
\n Written all over your face<\/span><\/p>\n

Here come those whispers in my ear<\/span>
\n Saying, \u201cWho do you think you are?<\/span>
\n Looks like you’re on your own from here<\/span>
\n \u2018Cause grace could never reach that far”<\/span><\/p>\n

But in the shadow of that shame<\/span>
\n Beat down by all the blame<\/span>
\n I hear You call my name saying ‘it’s not over’<\/span>
\n And my heart starts to beat so loud now<\/span>
\n Drowning out the doubt<\/span>
\n I’m down, but I’m not out<\/span><\/p>\n

There’s a war between guilt and grace<\/span><\/em>
\n And they’re fighting for a sacred space<\/span><\/em>
\n But I’m living proof<\/span><\/em>
\n Grace wins every time<\/span><\/em>
\n No more lying down in death’s defeat<\/span><\/em>
\n Now I’m rising up in victory<\/span><\/em>
\n Singing, hallelujah<\/span><\/em>
\n Grace wins every time<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Words can’t describe the way it feels<\/span>
\n When mercy floods a thirsty soul<\/span>
\n The broke inside begins to heal<\/span>
\n And grace returns what guilty stole<\/span><\/p>\n

And in the shadow of that shame<\/span>
\n Beat down by all the blame<\/span>
\n I hear You call my name saying it’s not over<\/span>
\n And my heart starts to beat so loud now<\/span>
\n Drowning out the doubt<\/span>
\n I’m down, but I’m not out<\/span><\/p>\n

Grace wins every time<\/span>
\n For the prodigal son<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For the woman at the well<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For the blind man and the beggar<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For always and forever<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\nFor the lost out on the streets<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For the worst part of you and me<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For the thief on the cross<\/span>
\n Grace wins<\/span>
\n For a world that is lost<\/span><\/p>\n
