Collective Worship cover
12. The Grace That Goes Before Us (Live)
Album: Collective Worship
Artist: Matt Adler
 

VERSE 1:
As Your eyes look to and fro across the earth
See us here before You now
It’s because of You that we are gathered here
Where faithfulness abounds

PRE-CHORUS:
Show Yourself strong
We need You God
Show Yourself strong to us

CHORUS:
It’s Your grace that goes before us
And follows close behind
It’s Your mercy and Your goodness
That covers all our lives

VERSE 2:
Calling, ever calling long before we knew
It was You all along
Seeking, ever seeking those You call Your own
Home, where we belong

PRE-CHORUS:
Show Yourself strong
We need You God
Show Yourself strong to us

CHORUS:
It’s Your grace that goes before us
And follows close behind
It’s Your mercy and Your goodness
That covers all our lives
It’s Your grace that goes before us
Waking up our hearts
Stirring up a longing
For all of who You are

BRIDGE:
Who are You God, if not beautiful, beautiful?
Who are You God, if not a friend?
Who are You God, if not wonderful?
Who are You? Who are You? (2x)

CHORUS:
You’re the grace that goes before us
And follows close behind
You’re the mercy and the goodness
That covers all our lives
You’re the grace that goes before us
Waking up our hearts
Stirring up a longing
For all of who You are
For all of who You are
