So there is this Christian band that I like called The Normals. I haven't listened to them in quite a while, but recently I've gotten back into them. I only have one of their albums, but MAN it's just a great album. The lyrics to the songs are just, so honest. I can sing along to their songs in my car and I feel like I could have written the lyrics myself. This song has been particularly relevant lately;
"What I Cannot Earn" the Normals
I try, I try
but I fail, I fail
it's like walking on ice in socks
it's like breathing underwater
I try
I live, I live
and I breathe, I breathe
but is living really life
and is breath really breathing
without You
when will I learn to accept my mistakes?
when will I learn to accept Your grace?
and if I was perfect well I wouldn't need mercy
and if I was perfect I wouldn't
need God - I wouldn't need God
when will I learn to accept my mistakes?
when will I learn to accept Your grace?
Your grace?
Your grace?
I think it might be my favorite song right now. Although, "Apron Full of Stains" is a pretty close second if for no other reason than the line "don't feel like I've got anything to give.....so I guess I've got nothin' to lose"
