Grace Changes Everything (Song)

Grace Changes Everything
By Victory Worship

From darkness to light
From death into life
His grace changes everything

From broken to whole
Stained to whiter than snow
His grace changes everything
His grace changes everything

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won

He has broken the chains
He has conquered the grave
His grace changes everything

By the power of His blood
We are daughters and sons
His grace changes everything
His grace changes everything

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

It is finished
It is finished
The victory is won

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won
Forever the victory is won
Forever the victory is won

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won

There's no sin too great
There's no pain too deep
The cross declares it is done

There's no shame too real
That His love won't heal
Forever the victory is won
Forever the victory is won
Forever the victory is won.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The first time I heard this song, I was going through a really tough time.

During then, I had just been through two years of emotional roller coaster. There were problems going on in the family and in our finances. I had to move to a new place, I fell in love with my new home, only to move out after two years. During those two years I was having real issues with my "friends." I went through a lot of doubt and had lots of questions. I had moments of insecurities. There is this huge expectation almost everybody had of me, but I never felt that I was good enough. I had responsibilities that I never wanted to have. I was so ashamed of some of the things I've done. After those two years, I had to move back to a place where all my childhood fears and troubles began.

But the saddest part was, I had started to think that God doesn't care for me. I hated that thought. I knew that it wasn't true, but I can't get rid of the thought. I slowly started drifting away from Him without realizing it. I was so ashamed of that fact that I hid it and showed to others that I am all good with God.

During that time, I didn't realize that I was in such an emotional trouble. I didn't realize that I was not okay until now. I think it's because I never wanted to not be okay. I believed that I am this super strong girl that doesn't get hurt by whatever the world decides to throw her, no matter how difficult. I hated crying. I chose to not face the current problem. As much as I can help it, I would set that problem aside and only deal with it when it is all pent up inside of me and right in front of my face, when I would have no choice but to face it.

I was filled with doubt, insecurities, longing, questions, guilt and shame. I was hungry for comfort, but proud that I wouldn't tell anyone that I was not okay.

And this song felt like it was just God whispering to my ear and telling me, "Let everything go, my child. I have forgiven you. I am here. Everything you worry about is now gone." This song holds the words I have been longing to hear. I felt like crying, but there are only four reasons in this world that can make my tears continually fall. But my heart felt so strong ang so heavy, yet so cherished. It was unexplainable.

As much as I want to say that things got better from there, they didn't. They got worse, actually. But that is a tale for another time. Things, as of today are better--much better, but there are still struggles.

I really wanted to share with you this song and the reason why it means so much to me. I didn't write this because I want people to be sorry for me. I hate it when that happens. I don't even feel sorry for myself.

I related to this, then that means that somebody out there might also be able to. If this song means a lot to you, or if you have thoughts about it, I would love to hear from you. Comment of pm me. I will reply as soon as I can.

MUSIC is the very beat of out heart.
