Gift of Grace
Words and Music by Joel Pakan © 2003 Subtle Conversation Music (ASCAP) -tangledblue.com-

Her husband left this earth many years before,
but her faith and hope kept her looking for
the world that was yet to come.
Trusting, born of this faith and hope,
led this widow out to the temple court
where her coins surpassed all other offerings.
They could never give as much as she had given.
They could never take her place.
Girded with faith and a Word that is living,
her trust was filled with God’s Grace (Luke 21:1-4).

Mary had sat at His feet so many times
clinging to the truth He made so unconfined.
Somehow she knew this was the last time.
Moved beyond the pending doom to praise,
she poured out all she had, yeah all she’d saved
and the fragrance filled the room.
She could never give as much as she’d been given.
She could never take His place.
So she broke the bank of all her savings,
and He filled her gift with His Grace.
And it was poured out. Poured out to the world.
Poured out, like God’s gift of Grace (John 12:1-8).

Now we are separated by miles and time
from these two gifts God has graced and found sublime,
but this same Spirit moves today.
Placed as a seed upon every heart
to grow, provide shelter, and bare the fruit of Christ
to a world in need.
We could never give as much as we’ve been given.
We could never take His place.
Lord, move us to trust, so all we are living is a gift of Grace.
We could never give as much as we’ve been given.
We could never take Jesus place.
So move us to a reckless trust
like the author and perfector of our faith.
And we will be poured out.
Poured out to this world.
Poured out like God’s gift of Grace.

about

Tangled Blue Minneapolis, Minnesota

Since June of 2000, Aimee and Joel have been making music together. Their first CD was completed in 2003. Recorded at a farm house in Wisconsin, it is a caffeinated, folk-rock blend of songs that have shown their durability as the duo traveled with them over 500,000 miles of highways. With a new home in Minneapolis, Tangled Blue recorded "Advent" in 2008 and will finish a third project this year. ... more
