Only it can take a beggar and call him a saint
It can take an orphan and give him a name
And bring redemption to a heart you thought could never change
That’s just what it does; that’s just what it does
It takes the roads that I have chosen
Promises I’ve broken
And covers them with an all-consuming love
It breaks the lies that once held me back
Reminding me again that
I’m not who I was
That’s just what grace does
Only it can take the years we thought we threw away
Making something beautiful of all those wasted days
A walking testimony, God’s glory on display
That’s just what it does; that’s just what it does
It takes the roads that I have chosen
Promises I’ve broken
And covers them with an all-consuming love
It breaks the lies that once held me back
Reminding me again that
I’m not who I was
We can’t outrun it
Oh, there’s no escape
There’s no one too far gone that it’s not strong enough to save
It takes the roads that I have chosen
The promises I’ve broken
And covers them with an all-consuming love
It breaks the lies that once held me back
Reminding me again that
I’m not who I was
It takes the roads that I have chosen
The promises I’ve broken
And covers them with an all-consuming love
It breaks the lies that once held me back
Reminding me again that
I’m not who I was
That’s just what grace does
Oh, that’s just what grace does
