Sarah traded her laughter for guilt

There's no hope left in her eyes

And the sentence for the wrong she's done

Is a lonely life

And we ask what has she done

As if that could make it ok

It's amazing what comfort we find in distance

Put yourself in her place



CHORUS: 

We all need forgiveness

We all need a second chance

We all need to be giv'n grace



Well, Deacon's got it all figured out

At least that's the way it seems

And he proudly wears his victories around on his sleeve

He's the first to point his finger 

When others don't measure up

God forbid he ever has to drink 

From his bitter cup



BRIDGE: 

I've messed up so many times It's my past that I'm haunted by

If I'm ever going to truly live

Grace I must accept, grace I must give

Grace I must give



CHORUS: 

We all need forgiveness 

We all need just one more chance

We all need to be giv'n grace

Yeah, are you giv'n

Forgiveness

We all need just one more chance

We all need to be giv'n grace

Yeah, are you giv'n grace

Are you receivi'n grace

Are you giv'n grace

Grace I must give
