So proud and excited that I by myself
|
Have reached such a lofty place
|
I took the last step toward my ultimate goal
|
But clumsily fell on my face
|
I opened my eyes only to find
|
I was back at the place I¡¯d begun
|
Helpless and broken, I strained and cried out
|
Surely the enemy has won
|
|
I felt his peace that passes understanding
|
Grace that is never ending
|
Love that overflows my soul
|
I felt his peace that passes understanding
|
Grace that is never ending
|
Love overflows my soul
|
|
As I wallowed in self pity, He came to sit with me there
|
His presence alone was so rich and so deep
|
It chased away all my despair
|
I said, ¡®Lord please forgive me for my prideful heart,
|
It sneaks in before I know.¡¯
|
He said, ¡®What prideful heart?¡¯ He forgave and forgot
|
He said, ¡®How I want you to know¡¦
|
|
My peace that passes understanding
|
Grace that is never ending
|
Love that overflows my soul.¡¯
|
His peace that passes understanding
|
Grace that is never ending
|
Love that overflows my soul
|
|
Now how daily I humble myself at His feet
|
I make His desire my will
|
For He¡¯s taken my higher than I have ever been
|
And He¡¯s taking me higher still
|
|
With his peace that passes understanding
|
Grace that is never ending
|
Love that overflows my soul
|
Oh peace, grace, love that overflows my soul
|
My soul
|
