Little Piece Of Grace Lyrics

A little piece of grace just fell on me
And it stretches out about as far as I can see
It may last a week or two or only a day
But I'm gonna savor it until it goes away
I'm gonna let it roll off my tongue and into my dancing boots
I'm gonna let it sweep me offa my feet
'Cause if I had nothing before I got nothing to lose
And I might as well see where it's leading to

A little bit of luck is in my hands
A little bit of heaven is just fine with me

It used to be that I was scared of happiness
It was such a stranger that it made me a little nervous
And I thought that sadness was my one true friend
And I thought that happiness was just something that would end
But I'm gonna let it lift me up in its tender hands
I'm gonna let it rock me off to sleep
I'm gonna let it kiss my forehead when I'm down and out
I'm gonna let it do what it will with me

A little light is shining on me
A little flame is in my heart burning bright

I used to go around with armor on
I used to look at others with a calculated scorn
I just didn't wanna have anything to lose
So I kept the doors to my heart locked up and closed
But now I'm not gonna fight it anymore
Yes I'm gonna take the lock offa my door
Yes I'm gonna strip myself down and bare my skin
Yes I'm gonna let that happiness in
