Grace Walks By
by Eli

Album: Second Hand Clothing

She was so beautiful
Lightning in her hair
She was in his sight
But the flashing lights
Of resentment filled his eyes
Left him scared and blind
Life is cold now
He wishes he could see

Forgiveness walks right by him
But he can't see her face
It's bitterness that blinds him
Oh, she walks up to him
He would look her in the eyes
If he still believed in grace
Still believed in grace

He used to dance with her
This old man in a chair
Now he don't walk no more
They used to dance like the wind
Until a storm blew him down
Left him broken on the floor, yeah
Life is slow now
He wishes he could reach

Forgiveness dances by him
But he can't join her
'Cause bitterness leads instead
Oh, she reaches for him
And he would take her hand
If she could raise the dead
Oh, she could raise the dead

Looking back now
At what others have missed
I am pleading for redemption's kiss

Forgiveness walks up to me
And I will join her
'Cause bitterness leads to death
Oh, she reaches for me
And I will take her hand
Together we will dance
Oh, together we will dance

Together we will dance
Yeah, together we will dance
