I came to Jesus, I took my stand,
But what I'd surrendered was back in my hands
Defeated by failures, haunted by fears
I cried out in anguish, "My God are You here?"
(Chorus)
He said, "Child, you're forgiven,
Forgiven and free."
He said it, I heard Him,
Sweet victory,
The future can never intimidate me
since I've been forgiven,
Forgiven and free.
I'm resting and growing in His strong embrace,
I've traded performance for amazing grace.
My soul is at rest,
Oh, but I still must rejoice when I think of that day,
That I heard His Voice.
What a relief cause earn my way
When I come up empty,
My Father pays,
I'm learning to live,
Oh and I'm learning to die,
and one of these days, I'll be learning to fly.
