Song Description

Sense of hope in the midst of life's failures

Lyrics

Well I know where you were
Last Sunday
And I watch you when you're all alone
And I know how you spend your money
And how you act when all your friends are gone
I have seen you filled with sadness for the wrong you've done
and I sat with you all those nights you cried
for those like you I have given this promise
for those like you I was crucified
And I will never leave you or forsake yo
and someday I will see you face to face
I want you to remember when you walk down
that old lonesome road
you can count on my amazing grace

I have watched you every effort and your errors
And I know how you've failed me time and again
but I came to call sinners, not the righteous to repentance
and I'm aware of the shape that you're in
but just remember
I'm on your side
And I want you to win and take your place
I want you to remember when you walk down
that old lonesome road
you can count on my amazing grace

Any man, any man that follows me takes the hard road
Its so much easier just to lay down and die
but the things, the things that matter most
in this old sinful world
will pass away
in the wink of an eye

So take a good look at the mountain in front of you
Its true, may be impossible for you to climb
and there are places you can fall from
and you face a mighty enemy who will push you down
and laugh while you cry oh you will cry and so have I
But there's one thing you must remember
I'm on your side
And I want you to win and take your place
I want you to remember when you walk down
that old lonesome road
you can count on my amazing grace
So when your heart is broke and you don't think you're gonna make it till tomorrow you can count on my amazing grace
amazing grace
