about

Another track that shows my love of gospel. I think my mom would have really liked this one. Two people came to mind as I wrote this track: my cousin Johnny Bunch, for the strength of his faith, and my friend Drexel Rayford, for his spirit and singing voice that I first enjoyed years ago.

lyrics

SAVE ME WITH YOUR GRACE

Oh Lord, won’t you save me when I’m tired:
Give me the strength to bear the pain.
And Lord, won’t you save me when I cry:
Please dry these tears on my face.

All my life I’ve doubted you
But I can’t hide from the truth.
Yes, I know I’ve strayed, but Lord,
Save me with your grace.

And Lord, won’t you save me when I’m blind:
Help me see the light of your day.
And Lord, won’t you save me from all lies:
Please wipe clean the devil’s trace.

All my life I’ve doubted you
But I can’t hide from the truth.
Yes, I know I’ve strayed, but Lord,
Save me with your grace.

And Lord, won’t you save me from my pride:
I pushed all my loved ones away.
And Lord, won’t you save me from this life:
I’ve been wasting all of my days.

All my life I’ve doubted you
But I can’t hide from the truth.
Yes, I know I’ve strayed, but Lord,
Save me with your grace.
