lyrics

I've got a mountain made of pennies, and it's gotten ten feet high
I know it doesn't reach to heaven, but I'm sure gonna try
To make it high enough to lift me I will build it with my hands
I'll mow a hundred thousand lawns, and I'll make lemonade stands
I've got a bucket full of quarters to take my soul and get it cleaned
I'll use the fanciest detergent, I will try the best machines
The muddy patches fade a little but it mostly stays the same
I wade around in all the bubbles when all I need's a name
One name cleans my slate and marks my way

Chorus:
Every day and every moment that I turn my heart to him
He's gonna reach and pull me in
Grace is amazing
So you've heard the people saying it a hundred times before
I'm gonna tell you a thousand more
Grace is amazing, grace is amazing, grace is amazing

I pin a number to my outfit and I swim a sea of tears
I've been trying now to cross it for 150 years
I've been treading around in circles and I might not even place
I got lost in all my seeking in this crazy human race
I've got a mountain made of pennies, but it's only ten feet high
I spent my bucket full of quarters, and I just break down and cry
But Jesus finds me in my sorrow, and he heals and makes me whole
He's paid the ultimate to save me and buy me back my soul
One name heals my heart, unlocks the gate

(Chorus)

I forgive and I'm forgiven, I cry and someday heal
He is the reason, grace is the reason
It's simple and it's difficult, It's impossible but real
He is amazing, grace is amazing
