Amazing Grace Lyrics by Jars of Clay

Who We Are Instead

2003

[Verse 1]
I grew this heart into a drifter
I never felt the roots I bare
I sold my sight, oh brother, sister
For a mountain of fool's gold, it's gone
Only God Knows, God knows where
[Verse 2]
My soul was restless for redemption
My feet were looking for a place to stand
Well I ain't got no life
And you know I ain't got no money
Just the faith of an empty hand
Empty hand
[Chorus]
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now
Like the sun is risin', heat on my face
Oh love that keeps on shinin', don’t let the shadow come
Ya know I gotta feel your healin' rays
[Verse 3]
Hitched a ride, I was a beggar
I had a murder on my hands
I needed water to rinse these stains
But only blood could remove what's spillin'
And pardon me the blame
[Chorus]
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now
Like the sun is risin', heat on my face
Oh love that keeps on shinin', don’t let the shadow come
Ya know I gotta feel your healin' rays
[Bridge]
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now
[Chorus]
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now
Like the sun is risin', heat on my face
Oh love that keeps on shinin', don’t let the shadow come
Ya know I gotta, yeah (Oh keep on shinin')
Amazing grace, I feel you coming up slowly now (Keep on shinin')
Like the sun is risin', heat on my face (Heat on my face)
Oh love that keeps on shinin', don’t let the shadow come
Ya know I gotta feel your healin' rays
See, I gotta feel your healin' rays
Ya know I gotta feel your amazing grace
