Grace Ain’T Just For Sundays

I cussed out loud on Monday mornin'
Spilled my coffee, slammed the door in
Forgot my prayer and ran late to work
Ain't read my Bible since last week
I'm still tryin', I'm still weak
But God don't quit on folks like me, no sir

I don't always get it right
But I still talk to Him at night

'Cause grace ain't just for Sundays
Ain't just hymns and bowin' heads
It's for broke-down hearts on Mondays
And the ones just tryin' to get ahead
It's for truck stop prayers and tear-filled eyes
When life gets too hard to hide
He don't wait for pews and praise
Yeah, grace ain't just for Sundays

I lose my cool, I mess things up
Still got anger I ain't cleaned up
But somehow He still calls me "son"
Ain't gotta wear no fancy clothes
He meets me right where no one goes
Even when I feel like I'm the only one

He don't love me any less
When I ain't at my Sunday best

'Cause grace ain't just for Sundays
Ain't just choirs or steeple bells
It's for busted hearts and backyard fights
And folks that slipped and fell
It's for drivin' home with guilt inside
And whisperin', "Lord, help me try"
He don't wait for pews and praise
Yeah, grace ain't just for Sundays

It's there on a barstool
It's there on the floor
It walks through your heartbreak
And knocks on your door
You don't have to earn it
He already paid
It's mercy that shows up
When you walk away

Yeah, grace ain't just for Sundays
It's for mess-ups just like me
It's for those who feel too far
To ever feel free
It's for when I fall and hit my knees
He still shows up faithfully
He don't wait for pews and praise
No, grace ain't just for Sundays

So if you're hurtin' on a Tuesday
He's still listenin' when you pray
Yeah, grace ain't just for Sundays
