Notes About The Poem

Song of Grace
“Grace is God as heart surgeon, cracking open your chest, removing your heart—poisoned as it is with pride and pain—and replacing it with his own. Rather than tell you to change, he creates the change. Do you clean up so he can accept you? No, he accepts you and begins cleaning you up. His dream isn’t just to get you into heaven but to get heaven into you.” - Max Lucado, Grace: More Than We Deserve, Greater Than We Imagine
Grace upon grace, pouring over my soul
Bleeding through doubts, past darkest fears
Restoring my song, breathing love to console
Feelings silence the ache – love’s in control
Reaching beyond grief, silencing the tears
Grace upon grace, pouring over my soul
Melodies of light, blessing, while God I’ll extol
Memories so alive, singing through the years
Restoring my song, breathing love to console
Perfect music weeps, my heart, love surely stole
Whispers of light fall as the worst shadow clears
Grace upon grace, pouring over my soul
Harmonizing with God’s voice makes one whole
As my life reveals gentleness the heart hears
Restoring my song, breathing love to console
This song, bursting with love, has been my goal
My heart will welcome Jesus with endless cheers
Grace upon grace, pouring over my soul
Restoring my song, breathing love to console
