Stumbling Into Grace

[good4somethingbum]

Stumbling Into GraceI remember wakin’ up too lateSunshine sneakin’ through my dusty shadeI reached for the empty bottle by the bedLaced my boots up after several triesTried to shake the shadows from my eyesAnd to chase the demons from my headStubbed my toe on a chair, shuffled down the stairsThat day started slow, little did I knowChorus I was stumbling into graceReachin’ for a righteous placeBut livin’ blind to all the signsLeadin’ to Eden’s gatesToo high to see my fallBut all who fly must crawlBefore stumbling into graceWhiskey’s smell was clinging to my clothesEven now I taste it in my noseBut there’s something stronger in the wind and airThat day I thought I had no one elseSo I stood there mumblin’ to myselfTill my desp’rate words became a prayerI walked the streets, with uncertain feetFound a church and went in, where God knew I’d beenChorus Brother, no matter how far you’ve fallenI’m proof that faith is out there callin’Chorus©2007 Robert George
