From the recording The Best Is Yet to Come
Lyrics
She's been living her whole life trying to follow
All the thou-shalt-nots
And the guilt that she buries is leaving her hollow
Her stomach tied in knots
She believes that somewhere some kind of God is out there
But she doesn't really know Him
And she wonders if all those rules will absolve her
But what she doesn't know is...
Grace rewrote the rules
It changed the game
When Jesus overcame
The score could never add up
Our sin would still condemn us
If it's a game, we all would lose
So Grace rewrote the rules
But today was a new thing on a Sunday morning
She saw a little church
She was curious to see if there was anything to see
And she acted on the urge
But when she walked inside she had nowhere to hide, see
She felt God all around
And when they asked if there was anyone who needs Jesus
She knelt down and...
Grace rewrote the rules
It changed the game
When Jesus overcame
The score could never add up
Our sin would still condemn us
If it's a game, we all would lose
So Grace rewrote the rules
What's so amazing about grace
It doesn't merely cover stains
It brings about a total change
It doesn't fix us, it transforms us
Doesn't rearrange, it recreates
It doesn't add the score up, no, it erases...
Grace rewrote the rules
It changed the game
When Jesus overcame
The score could never add up
Our sin would still condemn us
If it's a game, we all would lose
So Grace rewrote the rules
