Grace

from Small by Robin Tymm

lyrics

This life is slowly killing me, a little every day
While I'm not ready for eternity I'm well along the way
This is not how I would've wished it but now time is running out
Did I blink and somehow miss it? What this journey's been about

Once I thought I was a young man, now that's plainly not the case
Look at the paper thin skin on my hands, the lines etched on my face
In this moment of reflection, a little searching of the soul
It's too late for me to mention, I hope I die before I'm old

CHORUS
It doesn't matter if you lose or win
It's how you run your race
You get no second chance to choose again
Don't let it go to waste
You must accept your fate, admit your sins
With humility and grace
Then God decides to let you in
Or send you to that other place

I lived my life transparent, there for everyone to see
But it soon became apparent no one was looking out for me
I wish I could've told you, had some secrets to bestow
But there ain't nothing I could show you that you don't already know

So before my sun is setting am I supposed to make amends?
I am fed up with regretting and I'm tired of losing friends
There will be no one there to miss me when I am dead and gone
I'll leave behind this simple legacy, just a pocketful of songs

CHORUS
It doesn't matter if you lose or win
It's how you run your race
You get no second chance to choose again
Don't let it go to waste
You must accept your fate, admit your sins
With humility and grace
Then God decides to let you in
Or send you to that other place
