amazing grace (Photo credit: eschipul)
In this moment came
My saving grace
When all the tumult of the world
Might crash around me
Perhaps deservedly
A moment’s godlike leniency
Reaches out to me
And could I now believe
This tender hand
Which reached across this space
Was true and hopeful here
Could wipe away my tears
Relieve me of my fears
Support me through my years?
Pure moment of belief
To see my saving grace
Where wretched I had fallen
Old and broken to my knees
Barely breathing, just degrees
Yet before my heart could freeze
Came this graceful, calming breeze
