Sarah's traded her laughter for guilt
There's no hope left in her eyes
And the sentence for the wrong she's done
Is a lonely life

And we ask, what has she done?
As if that could make it okay
But it's amazing what comfort we find in distance
But put yourself in her place

We all need forgiveness
We all need a second chance
We all need to be given grace

Well, deacon's got it all figured out
At least that's the way it seems
And he proudly wears his victories
Around on his sleeve

And he's the first to point his finger
When others don't measure up
God forbid he ever has to drink
From his bitter cup

'Cause we all need forgiveness
We all need a second chance
We all need to be given grace, yeah

I've messed up so many times
It's my past that I'm haunted by
If I'm ever going to truly live
Grace, I must accept, grace, I must give
Grace, I must give

We all need forgiveness
We all need just one more chance
And we all need to be given grace

Yeah, are you given forgiveness?
And we all need just one more chance
And we all need to be given grace
Yeah, are you given grace?

Are you receivin' grace?
Are you given grace?
Grace, I must give
