🎵 TRACK 4 — GRACE WAS WAITING THERE Album: Where Heaven Meets My Heart Style: Cinematic Testimonial Rock · Female-Led Christian Worship · Country Soft Rock **[Verse 1]** There are pages I remember That I'd never read aloud, There were choices I regretted, There were tears I wouldn't allow. I kept all my old mistakes Like stones I carried everywhere, Never knowing in those broken places, Your grace was waiting there. **[Pre-Chorus]** I thought I had to leave them Far behind before You'd care, But You met me in the middle Of the mess I couldn't repair. **[Chorus]** Grace was waiting there, In the places I was hiding, In the weight I couldn't bear. When I thought I'd gone too far, Lord, You were reaching through despair. I was looking at my failures, You were showing me Your care. Now I know I wasn't abandoned— Grace was waiting there. **[Verse 2]** There were dreams that fell to pieces, There were years I can't reclaim, There were moments I kept wishing I could go back and change. But You never called me worthless, Never turned away in shame, You were teaching me that mercy Was much stronger than my blame. **[Pre-Chorus]** I can't rewrite the story, I can't change what brought me here, But I can see Your hand upon it, And the road ahead is clear. **[Chorus]** Grace was waiting there, In the places I was hiding, In the weight I couldn't bear. When I thought I'd gone too far, Lord, You were reaching through despair. I was looking at my failures, You were showing me Your care. Now I know I wasn't abandoned— Grace was waiting there. **[Bridge]** I don't have to love the hurting, I don't have to call it good, But I can trust You with the pieces Like I never thought I could. What I lost is not my future, What I did is not my name, I am more than all my failures, I am held within Your grace. **[Final Chorus]** Grace was waiting there, In the darkness, in the struggle, In the unanswered prayer. When I couldn't see tomorrow, You were faithful, You were there. Every road that led me weeping, Every burden, every tear, Could not put me past Your mercy— Grace was waiting there. Grace was waiting there, And it's with me in this moment, It's the hope I finally wear. I can face the road before me Without living in despair. I can't change the life behind me, But I know that You still care. Jesus, thank You for the mercy— Grace was waiting there. **[Outro — Soft, Intimate Female Vocal]** I was looking back in sorrow, You were calling me to see That the grace I thought I'd lost Was always reaching out to me. I was never beyond Your mercy. Grace was waiting there.
