Failure is a four letter word
That's common to us all
Grace taken for granted
Until the time we fall
God's not a cynic
And he doesn't take sin light
But to think he won't forgive you
Is a thought from the night
When you fail to meet "the standard"
And feel like such a scum
Don't drop out and give up
Remember from where you've come
God's not quitting now
His work with you aint done
In his eyes you're worth
Every bit of his only son
If you fail
God's not through with you
Don't try and bail
There's confessing to do
Don't justify (your sin)
Or try and strike a deal
Repent and believe
Forgiveness is for real
Don't believe the lie
That you have to live by a norm (standard)
Why did Jesus die
If we still have to perform?
He took out failure on his back
And nailed it to the cross
The believers rest is knowing this
And counting our strength as loss
Forgiveness is a promise
Made from God to man
He forgives and forgets
Like no one else can
You can believe you're forgiven
And not forgive yourself
But if you don't apply the grace
It might affect your health
God leaves the ninety-nine
To seek and find the one
You may have blown it big time
Yet you're still his son
You think when you return
A whipping you will find
But you're thinking wrongly
A kiss is on his mind
Even if you betray him
There's still hope for you
Share with a trusted brother
You know, he's fallen too
All of us are human
The words been truly spoken
God can really use us
When were on our knees and broken
So dont look to programs
Tongues, healing, or pretty things
Just reach out to Jesus
And the restoration he brings
Quit wallowing in you failure
And get yourself off your mind
God uses broken vessels
They're his favorite kind
