Lyrics

Chorus
Here, in this place,
I kneel down and seek your grace.
I’m a sinner, Lord. I’ve fallen so far.
Reach out to me from where you are.
And heal me. Restore my soul
Redeem me and make me whole

Verse 1
Like the tax collector standing in the temple,
He cried out, “Have mercy, Lord, on me.”
You forgave that man, but not the Pharisee
Because he called to you in faith, he believed.
He said,

Chorus
Here, in this place,
I cry out and seek your grace.
I’m a sinner, Lord. I’ve fallen so far.
Reach out to me from where you are.
Instrumental

Verse 2
Like the woman brought before you in the courtyard,
The people cried out, “she is unclean.”
You said, “Let the one who has no sin cast the stone.”
And each one turned away. They left the woman all alone.

Chorus
And there, in that place,
You reached out and offered grace
To a sinner, Lord. You opened the door.
You said, “Go, now, and sin no more.”

Bridge
The convict on the cross who hung beside you
Called out, “My Lord, remember me.”
Because he recognized you, Lord, you saved him.
He believed.

Chorus
So, here, in this place,
I kneel down and seek your grace.
I’m a sinner, Lord. I’ve fallen so far.
Reach out to me from where you are.
And heal me. Restore my soul
Redeem me and make me whole

Tag 1
I know you’ll heal me. Restore my soul
Redeem me and make me whole

Tag 2
Thank you, Jesus, for redeeming me.
You restore my soul.
