So proud and excited that
I by myself
Have reached such a lofty place
I took the last step toward my ultimate goal
But clumsily fell on my face
I opened my eyes only to find
I was back at the place
Iβd begun
Helpless and broken,
I strained and cried out
Surely the enemy has won
I felt his peace that passes understanding
Grace that is never ending
Love that overflows my soul
I felt his peace that passes understanding
Grace that is never ending
Love overflows my soul
As I wallowed in self pity,
He came to sit with me there
His presence alone was so rich and so deep
It chased away all my despair
I said, βLord please forgive me for my prideful heart,
It sneaks in before
I know.β He said, β
What prideful heart?β
He forgave and forgot
He said, β
How I want you to knowβ¦
My peace that passes understanding
Grace that is never ending
Love that overflows my soul.β
His peace that passes understanding
Grace that is never ending
Love that overflows my soul
Now how daily
I humble myself at
His feet I make
His desire my will
For Heβs taken my higher than
I have ever been
And Heβs taking me higher still
With his peace that passes understanding
Grace that is never ending
Love that overflows my soul
Oh peace, grace, love that overflows my soul
My soul
