Lyrics
Verse 1
I've been praying all this season
Building my faith up in strength
Moving from grace to grace, from height to height
Spreading His word out in hope, I'll be doing this for a while
Trusting the plan for my life
'Cause where I'm from no rest
But God still covers me (yeah)
They said I was nothing and broken
But He put songs in my eyes
Fire in my bones
Holy Ghost running in my head
Verse 2
I was chasing after things that never satisfied
Building up my kingdom, empty walls inside
But You showed me treasures rust could never claim
Now my hope is anchored in Jesus’ name
Pre-Chorus
When I was lost, You made a way
Turned my night into Your day
Chorus
And so it goes, Your love keeps flowing
River of grace that keeps me going
Through every high and every low
You never change, and so it goes
Your word stands firm, my heart now knows
You are the way, and so it goes
Bridge
From the cross to the empty grave
You proved the power of the One who saves
Now I’m living in the light of truth
All my days belong to You
Verse 1 (Reprise)
I've been praying all this season
Building my faith up in strength
Moving from grace to grace, from height to height
Spreading His word out in hope, I'll be doing this for a while
Trusting the plan for my life
'Cause where I'm from no rest
But God still covers me (yeah)
They said I was nothing and broken
But He put songs in my eyes
Fire in my bones
Holy Ghost running in my head

Meaning & Inspiration
“Moving From Grace to Grace” by Abraham H. and Lora Helena is a testimony of faith through hardship. The first verse speaks of praying and building faith, moving “from grace to grace, from height to height,” and trusting God’s plan even where there is no rest. The phrase is close to John 1:16, which speaks of grace upon grace, and to Psalm 84:7, which speaks of going from strength to strength.
The second verse admits chasing things that never satisfied and building an empty kingdom, until Jesus showed treasures that rust could never claim, close to Matthew 6:19-20. The pre-chorus and chorus give thanks that God made a way when the singer was lost, and describe a river of grace that keeps the singer going through highs and lows.
The bridge moves from the cross to the empty grave and says all the singer’s days belong to God. The message is that grace is steady and carries the believer forward.
