lyrics

You always were gracious, gracious to me
You showed a way that I could live with myself again
And though I'd run far away, far from your love
You always prayed and showed a way back home again

You sheltered me, everyday, you let me stay
You let me sing inside your room
Encouraged me, picked me up, called for my song
You let me call your house my home

My God and King, Jesus,
I'll always sing of your great love
No harm to sing: "heal us!"
Though I'll always bring fingers in need of rings
And a body in need of cloaks

I know you won't turn away, you'd never turn away
Stood by my shame so I'd survive
I know you gave freely, through the needles eye
You paid for my trip home and look: now I'm alive
