That's Why They Call It Grace

Last night in a dream I took a journey
I was trembling as I stood among the crowd
Some said crucify him
Others mocked and laughed
Not one soul came forward to speak on his behalf
I found myself drawn to this stranger
And, I saw such compassion in his eyes
Then he said the debt you owed will soon be covered.
When the Lamb of God is crucified

That's why they call it grace
That's why they call it mercy
And the tears ran down my face
For I was undeserving
The One called Heaven's glory reached through time & space
Took my guilt and died there in my place
That's why they call
That's why they call it grace

Then I awakened from my dream and my mind began to race
With one single act of love and one single drop of blood
Forever my sins were erased

That's why they call it grace
That's why they call it mercy
I will give him all my praise
Though I'm still undeserving
The one called Heaven's glory
Reached through time and space
Took my guilt and died there in my place
The one called Heaven's glory
Reached through time and space
Took my guilt and died there in my place
That's why they call
That's why they call
Oh oh that's why they call it Grace His Grace
