But For The Grace Of God
I can hear the neighborsThey're arguin' againAnd there hasn't been peace on our streetSince who knows whenI don't mean to listen inBut the shoutin' is so loudI turn up the radio to drown it outAnd silently I say a little prayer
But for the grace of God go II must've been born a lucky guyHeaven only knows how I've been blessedWith the gift of you loveAnd I look around and all I seeIs your happiness embracing meOh Lord I'd be lostBut for the grace of God
I can see that old manHe's walking past our doorAnd I've been told that he's richBut he seems so poor'Cause no one comes to call on himAnd his phone it never ringsHe wanders through his empty homeSurrounnded by his thingsAnd silently I say a little prayer, yes I do
But for the grace of God go II must've been born a lucky guyHeaven only knows how I've been blessedWith the gift of you loveAnd I look around and all I seeIs your happiness embracing meOh Lord I'd be lostBut for the grace of God
I look around and all I seeIs your happiness embracing meOh Lord I'd be lostBut for the grace of GodOh Lord I'd be lost
Oh Lord I'd be lostBut for the grace of GodOh Lord I'd be lostBut for the grace of God
