GRACE AWAITING ME

  Lyrics

Verse 1
I will see the world to come
For one has suffered in my place
Now there is grace awaiting me, awaiting me
Judgement’s done, atonement’s made
The ransom’s paid, no guilt remains
Now there is grace awaiting me, awaiting me

Chorus
Grace a welcome from the Father
Grace forgiveness full and free
Grace that’s greater than our failings
Oh there is grace awaiting me

Verse 2
I take comfort in the hope
Of the thief upon the cross
For I am worthy of as little love as he
Like this man, I won’t despair
For life’s ahead, what joy we’ll share
Now there is grace awaiting me, awaiting me

Bridge
Jesus you have loved and bought me
By your death my debts are paid
I am yours, I stand beside you
Fearless face the coming day

Verse 3
I will see the world to come
Despite the sin that I have done
For there is grace awaiting me, awaiting me
All who call upon the Lord
Will rise to life with peace assured
For there is grace awaiting me, awaiting me

Ending 
Oh there is grace awaiting me

  Sample Introduction

The apostle Peter calls Christians to “set our hope fully on the grace that will be brought to us at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” God has shown us his grace through the atoning death of Christ and because of that, we look forward to the grace that will welcome us when Jesus returns.
