"Grace Upon Grace" lyrics - MATTHEW WEST

What reason do I have to wake up with the rising sun
And not be held down by the weight of all the things I've done?
What reason do I have to feel this hope instead of hurt?
How can it be I don't receive the judgement I deserve?

[Chorus:]
Wave upon wave, of grace upon grace
Endlessly washing my sins away
I know the only reason I can stand here free of all my shame
Is wave upon wave, of grace upon grace upon grace

How can You see me at my worst and still say I am loved?
What promise can I stand on when I don't feel good enough?
When the enemy's reminding me of all that I've done wrong
What freedom do I have to sing this new creation song?

[Chorus:]
Wave upon wave, of grace upon grace
Endlessly washing my sins away
I know the only reason I can stand here free of all my shame
Is wave upon wave, of grace upon grace upon grace

[Bridge:]
Singing
What can wash away my sin and make me new again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me white as snow? No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus

[Chorus:]
Wave upon wave, of grace upon grace
Endlessly washing my sins away
I know the only reason I can stand here free of all my shame
Is wave upon wave, of grace upon grace
Wave upon wave, of grace upon grace upon grace

[Outro:]
What can wash away my sin and make me new again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
