"From the Belly of Grace" (text by ChatGPT aided by BibleProject) 2

[Verse 1] I’m standing here, soaked and alive, On the shore where mercy kept me alive. Darkness swallowed me, fear held me tight, But God’s grace pulled me back to the light. I ran so far, but where could I go? Away from the One who controls the flow. The sea obeys Him, the storm does too, And even a fish can be His rescue. [Chorus] From the belly of grace, I was broken and blind, But You pulled me out, gave me one more time. When I chose to flee, still Your love pursued, From the depths of the sea, You’ve made me new. [Verse 2] I heard Your voice, but I turned away, Nineveh's sins weren’t mine to weigh. Hatred and pride built a wall in my heart, But You tore it down with a brand-new start. I called for death when I couldn’t cope, But You sent a fish and gave me hope. Three days in the deep, I began to see, Your mercy’s greater than my misery. [Chorus] From the belly of grace, I was broken and blind, But You pulled me out, gave me one more time. When I chose to flee, still Your love pursued, From the depths of the sea, You’ve made me new. [Bridge] I’m a fool, Lord, who ran from Your plan, Yet You stayed faithful when I took my stand. Now here I am, spit out on this shore, I’ll walk where You send me, I’ll fight no more. [Chorus] From the belly of grace, I was broken and blind, But You pulled me out, gave me one more time. When I chose to flee, still Your love pursued, From the depths of the sea, You’ve made me new. [Outro] God of the sea and the storm and the land, I’ll go where You lead, I’ll follow Your hand. Your mercy is bigger than I ever knew, And from the belly of grace, You’ve made me new.
