Grace And Nothing More (Woven In Time)

I thought while on this voyage long

My strength god would increase

And at some point along the way

My struggling would cease

I fought with boldness, wind and wave

And yet the skirmish lost

Exhausted, all provision gone

The channel still uncrossed

As lifeless i in stillness drift

Just strength enough to pray

It's only then i feel the surge

That speeds me on my way

By his own hand and faithfulness

He steers me toward a distant shore

And the wind that billows in the sail

Is grace and nothing more

Yes, it's grace and nothing more

I seek the bloom of holiness

He leads me deep within

Reveals the hardness of my heart

Unearths my hidden sin

My barren soul groans in despair

In brokenness i cry

Oh, god, i find no hope in me

A smile his sweet reply

For where the tears of brokenness

Have soaked the fallow ground

The tender shoots of holiness

Now spring up all around

Strength in my weakness

Joy through the pain

Hope when i'm helpless

Loss my greatest gain
