Karen Clark-Sheard - 2nd Chance lyrics

rate me

[Verse 1:]

Dear God I know what's right from wrong

But there are times I let myself slip away

Though I've hidden thy word in my heart

I sometimes forsake the extent of your grace

Shallow as I sometimes behave ignoring your ways

Letting my selfishness conquer my days

Thanks to your unmerited favor

[Chorus:]

I strayed away but you saved the day

And you gave me a 2nd chance

It's been so long since I've been home

I was wrong but you gave a 2nd chance

[Verse 2:]

Dear God I try to focus my eyes on you

As I worship in spirit and in truth

Though you're my light in my darkest hour

But it gets hard to see when I'm all into me

Shallow as I sometimes behave ignoring your ways

Letting my selfishness conquer my days

Thanks to your unmerited favor

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]

You gave me a chance I know that I don't deserve

Throughout my life there's none else I'd rather serve

I promise I will do my best to make it into Heaven

For as I sleep and awake you sustained me

That's why I love you so

Shallow as I sometimes behave ignoring your ways

Letting my selfishness conquer my days

Thanks to your unmerited favor

[Chorus]
