lyrics
Who am I that love would take notice of, leave behind ninety-nine to find one?
Who am I that you take affection to, save a slave in the place of a son?
I'm spilling like wine in the hand of a bridegroom
Spinning his bride on the dance floor
I scribbled some lines of a song for a savior
What can I say, I’ve been carried away
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
Who am I that your blood was poured out for, broken wide like a fine jar of fragrance?
Who am I that by your compassion my debt was paid for, my shame washed away?
I'm grasping at straws for the words to describe you
Rasping out praise of your glory
I'm digging my claws into truth I can cling to
Where would I go? I’ve been caught in the flow of this
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
You have the words of life
Where would I run to?
Why would I want to?
The shimmer of gold, the sparkle of diamond
Set where no one can break in and steal
The circle and stone on the hand of a maiden
Are still not as beautiful as the promise they seal
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
Who am I that you take affection to, save a slave in the place of a son?
I'm spilling like wine in the hand of a bridegroom
Spinning his bride on the dance floor
I scribbled some lines of a song for a savior
What can I say, I’ve been carried away
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
Who am I that your blood was poured out for, broken wide like a fine jar of fragrance?
Who am I that by your compassion my debt was paid for, my shame washed away?
I'm grasping at straws for the words to describe you
Rasping out praise of your glory
I'm digging my claws into truth I can cling to
Where would I go? I’ve been caught in the flow of this
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
You have the words of life
Where would I run to?
Why would I want to?
The shimmer of gold, the sparkle of diamond
Set where no one can break in and steal
The circle and stone on the hand of a maiden
Are still not as beautiful as the promise they seal
Matchless grace! What could ever compare?
Perfect love drives away all of my fear
Priceless peace when my faith brings me sight of your face
Oh for a thousand tongues to taste of this matchless grace
