Lord, the feelings are not the same
I guess I'm older, I guess I've changed
And how I wish it had been explained, that as you're growing you must remember
That nothing lasts, except the grace of God, by which I stand, in Jesus
I know that I would surely fall away, except for grace, by which I'm saved

Lord, I remember that special way
I vowed to serve you, when it was brand new
But like Peter, I can't even watch and pray, one hour with you
And I bet, I could deny you too
But nothing lasts, except the grace of God, by which I stand, in Jesus
I'm sure that my whole life would waste away, except for grace, by which I'm saved
But nothing lasts, except the grace of God, by which I stand, in Jesus
I know that I would surely fall away, except for grace, by which I'm saved
