Undeserving

Every day as we walk

In the luminous darkness

We stumble and fall

Trying to make our way

Every day as we walk

Among the fallen

Holding our heads up

We are better than the rest

Every day as we walk

We are tempting grace

Taking the unconditional love

And abusing the wondrous gift

We act as we are it,

Be all and end all

Who we are all deserving

Of Grace and Love

We act all innocent

But we are guilty

We don’t deserve mercy

There should be no forgiveness

But we are lucky

Lucky for the gift of Grace

As we are undeserved sinners

With a loving mighty saviour
