Dust On My Knees

Dust On My Knees

[Verse 1]

I came in tired

Shoes full of rain

Carrying my worry

Like a pocket of stones

I set it down

By the old church door

And your mercy met me

Where I was

[Pre-Chorus]

I heard my name

Like a gentle flame

You were calling me

Back again

My hands were empty

My heart was loud

Then grace came near

And pulled me out

[Chorus]

Dust on my knees

Blessings in my hands

Dust on my knees

You still understand

I was lost, now I stand

I was weak, now I can

Dust on my knees

And I’m home again

[Verse 2]

Mama’s old Bible

Folded and worn

Held me through the storm

Held me through the dawn

I sang through tears

At the break of day

And the fear that chased me

Lost its way

[Pre-Chorus]

I heard my name

Like a gentle flame

You were calling me

Back again

My hands were empty

My heart was loud

Then grace came near

And pulled me out

[Chorus]

Dust on my knees

Blessings in my hands

Dust on my knees

You still understand

I was lost, now I stand

I was weak, now I can

Dust on my knees

And I’m home again

[Bridge]

Let the hard days fold

Let the burdens fall

You were faithful then

You’re faithful through it all

I will sing it out

Till the morning breaks

Every scar I’ve got

Is a gift of grace

[Chorus]

Dust on my knees

Blessings in my hands

Dust on my knees

You still understand

I was lost, now I stand

I was weak, now I can

Dust on my knees

And I’m home again
