Mystery of mysteries
That you could love someone like me
In your hands eternity
And yet you have the time for me
A love so undeserved
You held nothing in reserve
Heaven played its symphony
I took your hand, and you rescued me

Grace like a river
Is flowing down
Is flowing down
Grace like a river
It’s flowing down to me

Staring at my history
Was all alone but never free
The sands of time have let me see
Your faithful shadow next to me
A love so unreserved
I did nothing to deserve
Love so free but what’s the cost
To carry this old rugged cross

I love you, I thank you
I’m nothing, without your
Grace like a river

Behind the Song:
'I’m really pleased with this song. It came from a real fresh encounter with the Grace of God that I experienced last year. I’m amazed by the mystery that I am loved unconditionally, and that there is nothing I can do to earn that love. Hebrews 4 talks about us “drawing near with confidence to the throne of grace that we may find mercy and receive grace in our time of need”. What’s great for me is that I don’t have to feel like I’m on “cloud nine” all the time but I can jump in the “Grace River” anytime because Jesus sympathizes with our humanity and has made a way for the imperfect to experience the perfect. See Hebrews 4: 14-16' - Stu G (Delirious?)
