Mystery of Grace

A solitary picture

Hanging on my wall

The same familiar scenery

We all have seen before

And I can't help but wonder

Staring at Your face

Just what You must have been like

As You visited this place

God come to earth as man

To save us all

But I

I'm longing for the day

When my mysteries of you will be erased

But until then

I must go on living (until then)

this world will keep on spinning

Until then I'll live by faith

Oh the mystery of grace (Will someday be erased)

When I see you face to face (In heaven some sweet day)

Now I've got all your letters

I read them every day

I'm finding more and more

I hang on to every word you say

I've often called you Friend

And I can't forget

That You, You are making me a place

Far beyond this present maddness that I face

But until then

I must go on living (until then)

This world will keep on spinning

I'll keep hanging from day to day

Until then I'll live by faith
