Music Monday: "Your Grace Finds Me"

Last week at church, we sang this song. Just the day before, I had written this post about my word of the year, humility. The Pastor's sermon was also about humility. I love how God works! I was struck by these lyrics, and the truth in them. God's grace is always around us, on our big days and in the small moments too. It's amazing how the seemingly small moments can leave a big impression on your heart. I remember very vividly walking across a street, holding both of my younger daughters' hands, and thinking it was such a sweet moment, and thinking, "I will always remember this." And I have-- it is a treasure that I hide in my heart, a true "mom" moment. God is always there for us-- whether we are going through our darkest nights, in the weeping by the graveside, but He is also there on the wedding days, and the birth of children. God is in our lives, in my life, and I see evidence of it all of the time. I am so humbled that He knows me.

What is grace? I've always heard is explained this way: 

God's 

Riches

At

Christ's 

Expense

I hope you'll enjoy this song too!

Your Grace Finds Me Lyrics - Matt Redman

It's there in the newborn cry
It's there in the light of every sunrise
It's there in the shadows of this light
Your great grace

It's there on the mountaintop
It's there in the everyday and the mundane
There in the sorrow and the dancing
Your great grace

Oh, such grace

From the creation to the cross
Then from the cross into eternity
Your grace finds me
Yes, Your grace finds me

It's there on a wedding day
There in the weeping by the graveside
There in the very breath we breathe
Your great grace

Same for the rich and poor
Same for the saint and for the sinner
Enough for this whole wide world
Your great grace

Oh, such grace

From the creation to the cross
Then from the cross into eternity
Your grace finds me
Yes, Your grace finds me

There in the darkest night of the soul
There in the sweetest songs of victory
Your grace finds me
Yes, Your grace finds me

Your great grace
Oh, such grace
Your great grace
Oh, such grace

So I'm breathing in Your grace
And I'm breathing out Your praise
I'm breathing in Your grace
Forever I'll be
Breathing in Your grace
And I'm breathing out Your praise
I'm breathing in Your grace
Forever I'll be
Breathing in Your grace
And I'm breathing out Your praise
Breathing in Your grace
Forever forevermore

Yes, Your grace finds me
Yes, Your grace finds me

Proverbs 1:8-9
Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction
and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
They are a garland to grace your head
and a chain to adorn your neck.

Out of his fullness we have all received grace in place of grace already given.
For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

...for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me.
