A Little Grace
Trading Shadows for Grace: Jamie Bosanko's Soulful Journey
Lyrics
There's dirt on my heels, sweat on my face
Expressing physical effort and hard work, possibly in a challenging environment.
The sun's beating down
Describing a hot and intense weather condition.
Strayed from the road, feeling my way
Metaphorically deviating from the usual path, navigating through life by intuition.
For solid ground
Seeking stability and reliability in life.
Lost my faith, when heaven closed down
Experiencing a loss of faith or hope, possibly due to difficult circumstances.
I'll trade you what's left for a little grace
Willing to exchange what remains of oneself for a chance at redemption or mercy.
A little grace
Repeating the desire for a "little grace," emphasizing the theme of seeking forgiveness or salvation.
I wanted to show you how clean I could be
Expressing a desire to demonstrate personal purity or integrity.
A test of my strength
Testing one's own strength, possibly in the context of a relationship or personal challenges.
Exposed all my weakness, confessed all my lies
Revealing vulnerabilities and confessing past falsehoods.
We buried the rest
Burying or putting to rest aspects of the past, possibly in a symbolic or metaphorical sense.
The best of me died when you faded away
Highlighting a significant loss or change associated with someone's departure.
But I'll trade you what's left for a little grace
Willing to trade the remnants of oneself for a chance at receiving mercy or forgiveness.
A little grace
Reiterating the plea for a "little grace," emphasizing its importance.
Take me in your arms, down to the sea
Requesting comfort and solace, possibly in the metaphorical context of being embraced.
Lay me down
Expressing a desire to be laid to rest or find peace.
I have wasted eternity
Conveying a sense of time lost or wasted.
So lay me down
Repeating the desire to be laid down, possibly emphasizing the need for rest or closure.
Gave up my faith when we pulled down the gates
Relinquishing faith, potentially linked to a significant event like the closing of gates.
I'll trade you what's left for a little grace
Willingness to exchange what remains for a chance at redemption or mercy, echoing earlier sentiments.
A little grace
Repeating the plea for a "little grace," underscoring its significance in the overall message.
