But for the grace of God
She'd cry herself to sleep
Because the grace of God
Is something she can keep 
Oh, it won't be long
Until their hold is broken
Oh, it won't be long
Until we've found our home 

It's for the good of you
I sing sweet melody
They'll cast the first stone
When the last one's out of reach 

Oh, it won't be long
Until their hold is broken
Oh, it won't be long
Until we've found our home 

Forget where to begin
Brother I have not sinned
I have not 

But for the grace of God
She'd cry herself to sleep
But now the grace of God
Is the reason that she weeps 

Oh, it won't be long
Until their hold is broken
Oh, it won't be long
Until we've found our home 

When summer comes, light my life
Snow will melt away
When summer comes, light my life
Snow will melt away 

I was born again, I was born again
Not into the world they put me in
She was born again, she was born again
Not into the world they put her in 

I was born again, I was born again
Not into the world they put me in
She was born again, she was born again
Not into the world they put her in.
