Saving Grace
« on: »
This is a song I called Saving Grace...

When you read it, what do you think it's about?  Just curious...I realized later that when I wrote the lyrics, they could be perceived in a way that was not my initial intention...but that is sometimes what makes songs great - that it applies to you personally...

Saving Grace

[Verse]
Sometimes I know that I don't got my head on straight
Like my world is gonna cave
and I've got nothing left to save
When I'm feeling like I'm just a little late
Like the seasons passed me by
Before I've had the time to try

[Prechorus]
But then you came into my life
Held me up when I was down
Out of nowhere you appeared
Helped me turn my world around

[Chorus]
When I'm in between a rock and a hard place
Somewhere in between the wrong and the right space
You keep me moving on
Build me up and make me strong       
You'll always  be my mountain and my saving grace
 
[Verse]
When I find myself just struggling through the day
I hear your voice inside of me
And feel its calming energy
And like magic all the pain just goes away
Should have listened from the start
Took you close into my heart

[Prechorus]
I'm so glad you came into my life
Keep me up when I get down
And I know you're always near
When my world turns upside down

[Chorus]
When I'm in between a rock and a hard place
Somewhere in between the wrong and the right space
You keep me moving on
Build me up make me stay strong
You'll always be my mountain and my saving grace

Hay Spymonsays,

This could be a Christian song or a love song, depending on your point of view.

Me I would lean more towards a love song.

Thanks for the response Tex!  Actually it is a love song but when I was in Church listening to the band,  I realized it could actually be a Christian song!

You do know that the song:  You Light Up My Life by Debbie Boone was written to be a Christian song.

Thematically, it makes me recall "Wave On Wave," which is a good theme.

Song has a good feel to it and the lyrics mesh nicely with the music.

Enjoyed it.

I like the premise, the chorus is really good, my only question is are your verses paying off with the chorus?


Saving Grace.................


When I saw the title, I thought a kewl twist would be "her" name was Grace.

Certainly could be a christian song for sure.
