lyrics
_______________________________________________
THE GRACE IN YOU
When they tell you, you’re a loser
When they push you to face the mud
When they cover your heart in bruises
& They write your name out in blood
I’ll be there beside you
Oh I’ll remind you what you can achieve
I’ll be there to fight for you
I will be there to help you find...
(CH)
The Grace in You... Shining ike a warrior
The Grace in You... Stronger than you can see
Maybe I’m an angel, or maybe I’m a fool
But I’ll always see the best in you...
The Grace in You
When you tell me, you’re a loser
& That maybe the things they say are right
And that your heart is so black and empty
& You need my love to shine a light
I’ll be there beside you
Oh I’ll remind you what you can achieve
Oh I’ll be there to fight for you
& I will be there to help you see...
(CH)
The Grace in You... Shining like a warrior
The Grace in You... Stronger than you can see
Maybe I’m an angel, or maybe I’m a fool
‘Cos I’ll always see the best in you...
(Bridge)
I may be wrong, I may be right
I may be black, I may be white
I may be thick, I may be thin
But I have soul beneath my skin.
I may be deaf, I may be blind
Or have a mirage in my mind
It may be false, it may be true
That there is innocence in you
I may be lost, I may be found
Or have my head stuck in the ground
I may be naïve, but I still believe in...
(CH)
The Grace in You, Shining like a warrior
The Grace in You, Stronger than you can believe
The Grace in You, Shining like a warrior
The Grace in You, Stronger than you can see...
Maybe I’m an angel, or maybe I’m a fool
But I’ll always see the best in you...
The Grace in You...

Dark, angry, heartfelt...some of these lyrics are hard to read, but there is something valedictory about the journey they take you on, if you are prepared to go.
Rachel's songs are not for the faint-hearted but that voice...how can you NOT listen?
Dark beauty, like being strangled by a velvet glove.
And all the while Jon's playing and arrangements are the perfect accompaniment. His melodies carry Rachel's lyrics with subtlety and suppleness. Mike Ashton
