Intro | / / | / | | / / | / | Verse 1 You were never distant It was me that crossed the line But grace was well acquainted To frail and wayward hearts I’d heard that Love was patient But I had pressed so far Still there was forgiveness To find Chorus 1 When rags of shame were all that I could see You laid a robe of mercy over me The Love I thought I lost was always mine When I couldn’t see it, You gave me time Turnaround | / / / | / / / | Verse 2 You were never hurried But never wasting time 'Cause You were always working With eternity in mind And though there would be moments That left me high and dry Still there was a blessing To find Chorus 2 'Cause when my past was all that I could see You spoke a brighter future over me Those promises delayed were not denied When I couldn’t see it, You gave me time Interlude | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | | / / / | / / / | / / / | / / / | Bridge There’s time for good intentions Time for second chances Grace won’t lose its patience While I work it out There’s time for all my questions Time for hesitation Faith’s not counting seconds For me to step out There’s time for all my failures Time for all my anger Love’s not keeping records Of every breakdown There’s time for starts and endings Time for joy and weeping Glory unto glory It’s all in Your time Chorus 'Cause a cross was all the world could see You raised redemption’s banner over me From life to death and then from death to life Through every moment, the gift was time Ending And when the light of heaven’s all I see The weight of glory washing over me And face to face Your eyes will meet with mine Now I can see it: the gift is time
