Free Grace

I just recently wrote this song. It was inspired by a girl who I sat next to in seminray for the past two semesters. on her first day in class she was so overwhelmed by the fact that she was given the opportunity to study God's word with such regularity that she began to cry. She regularly spoke with such passion for those who had given up so much for the cause of Christ. I couldn't help but think of the fact that the grace that allowed her to study in such a way and the grace that gave her salvation was not free. It costs Jesus' life. Here are the lyrics to the song Free Grace- Because it is free to those who place their faith in Him.
Verse 1
The tears fall from her face
For she received such a grace
She falls down to her knees
Cause she knows that she is free

Chorus
She’s free from death and free from sin
She’s free from where she’s been
Cause there’s freedom in the blood, the blood of Christ
And freedom costs the greatest price

Verse 2
She wants to know what will be next
She sees what grace effects
She jumps for joy and sings a song
Cause the grace of Christ will ne’er be gone

Bridge
Grace grace God’s Grace
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace grace God’s Grace
Grace that is greater than all our sin
