Holding Out For Grace

I'm a huge Michael Tait fan, and have been for years since I first heard him with DC Talk. I'm not just a fan of his music, but of his life. If you follow Michael's life and career, he's not been perfect. Many have sought to crucify him for his failures, but let's be really honest folks, which of us could stand if all of our failures, slips and falls were broadcast for all the world to see? I'm not winking at sin or condoning it in any way, and I don't believe Michael would either. But this is where grace come in. Thank you Lord for forgiveness and grace.

This is one of my favorite of Tait's songs. Listen and pay attention to the words. I'm going to add the words below because I don't want you to miss them. Grace is such a powerful thing!



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 so 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[ Lyrics from: 


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 (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
Oh Father shine your light
On your daughters and your sons

Ooooho, 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


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
O Father shine Your light on Your daughters and Your sons

Oh my Lord,

O God our God how beautiful You are
O God our God how beautiful You are
God our God You're beautiful so beautiful
