Grace

Grace, she takes the blame
She covers the shame
Removes the stain
It could be her name

Grace...
It's a name for a girl
It's also a thought that, changed the world
And when she walks on the street
You can hear the strings
Grace finds goodness in everything

Grace, she's got the walk
Not on a ramp or on chalk
She's got the time to talk
She travels outside of karma, karma
She travels outside... of karma

When she goes to work, you can hear the strings
Grace finds beauty in everything

Grace...
She carries a world on her hips
No champagne flute for her lips
No twirls or skips between her fingertips
She carries a pearl in perfect condition

What once was hurt
What once was friction
What left a mark
No longer stings...
Because Grace makes beauty
Out of ugly things

Grace finds beauty in everything


Bono of U2

Great lyrics. This confirms I chose the right name for my blog. :-) Who would've thought it would come from a band like U2? Hope to listen to the song someday.
Bong said…
actually, 3 of the 4 members of U2 are professing Christians, Bono, the lead singer and main song writer included. what i love about this band is that they are not your "Bible-thumping fundamentalists" but rather they express their spirituality by living authentic lives that find voice in the struggle for justice, for peace, and for righteousness.
