Still Standing by Grace

[Verse 1] Mama cried at the county line When they took my name and locked my time I learned hell in a steel bunk bed And rage ran wild through my head I chased the bottle, chased the spark Found my shadow in the dark Loved too hard, then slammed the door Kept coming back for blood and more [Pre-Chorus] I hit the floor, I hit it hard Prayed one night from a broken heart Hands in the air, nowhere to go Just one more light in the undertow [Chorus] Still standing by grace Still standing by grace I should be gone, but I'm here today Still standing by grace Still standing by grace Still standing by grace Through every scar and every wreckage wave Still standing by grace [Verse 2] Had a home with the picture frame Had a ring, had a good first name Then I lost it in a blink of flame Watched it all go down the drain My mind got loud, my tongue got sharp I broke more things than I could start Some nights I swore I'd gone too far Some nights I begged in the dark [Pre-Chorus] I heard my name in a quiet room Like mercy came wearing the moon One more breath, one more chance One more reason to still stand [Chorus] Still standing by grace Still standing by grace I should be gone, but I'm here today Still standing by grace Still standing by grace Still standing by grace Through every scar and every wreckage wave Still standing by grace [Bridge] If you see me now, don't call me strong I was carried when I couldn't go on A hundred prayers held me up When my own hands gave up [Final Chorus] Still standing by grace Still standing by grace I should be gone, but I'm here today Still standing by grace Still standing by grace Still standing by grace From the jail cell to the altar place Still standing by grace
