Holding Out for Grace Lyrics
I believe, I believe in who You are
And when You speak, I hear You deep inside my heart
It's more of You I want, so take me back
To the start show me the bigger part
I know there's much more to life
So won't You open up my eyes, I want to see
And I, I'm falling on my face
I'm holding out for Grace, send Your Spirit down
Illuminate this place, my Lord
My Love, my peace, without You I'm incomplete
And in my time of need, I know You're watching over me
And I can't wait to lose myself in Your embrace, You're my hiding place
I know there's so much more to life
So won't You meet me here tonight
I want to see
And I, I'm falling on my face
I'm holding out for Grace, send Your Spirit down
Illuminate this place, let Your Kingdom come
Heal the broken ones
Father shine Your light on Your daughters and sons
In my mind, there's a battle going on and on for my life
But this time I'm gonna give You everything I have inside
God our God how beautiful You are
God our God how beautiful You are
God our God You're beautiful so beautiful

Song Description:
'I didn't think of this as a worship song when I sat down to write it, but by the time I was finished I realized that's exactly what it had become. The lyric expresses a desire to go beyond where we are, to move deeper into relationship with our Creator. It's about recognizing our ultimate need and saying, "I won't settle for anything less--I'm holding our for Grace."' - Michael Tait
