Lyrics:
Mystery of mysteries That you could love someone like me In your hands eternity And yet you have the time for me A love so undeserved You held nothing in reserve Heaven played its symphony I took your hand, and you rescued me
Grace like a river Is flowing down Is flowing down Grace like a river It’s flowing down to me
Staring at my history Was all alone but never free The sands of time have let me see Your faithful shadow next to me A love so unreserved I did nothing to deserve Love so free but what’s the cost To carry this old rugged cross
I love you, I thank you I’m nothing, without your Grace like a river

Behind the Song: 'I’m really pleased with this song. It came from a real fresh encounter with the Grace of God that I experienced last year. I’m amazed by the mystery that I am loved unconditionally, and that there is nothing I can do to earn that love.
Hebrews 4 talks about us “drawing near with confidence to the throne of grace that we may find mercy and receive grace in our time of need”. What’s great for me is that I don’t have to feel like I’m on “cloud nine” all the time but I can jump in the “Grace River” anytime because Jesus sympathizes with our humanity and has made a way for the imperfect to experience the perfect. See Hebrews 4: 14-16' - Stu G (Delirious?)
