The Story Behind “I See Grace” by Micah Tyler

The story behind “I See Grace” by Micah Tyler

Story behind the song “I See Grace”:

"Last Christmas I was walking thru the most difficult season of my life. Out of that pain I wrote "I See Grace" with my brothers @micahtylermusic (Micah Tyler) and @matthewjwest (Matthew West). Micah being the rockstar he is recorded it and it's out today!”

"There's a verse in the Bible (Philippians 1:6) that says, he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. When I find myself stressed, anxious, depressed, angry, uncertain of what decision to make, hopeless or a thousand other emotions, I remind myself to look back at God's goodness/faithfulness in my life, because when I look back... I SEE GRACE and if Philippians is true and God is who He says He is, then I believe grace is with me now and will meet me in the future as well."

Lyrics to “I See Grace”:

I've seen shame
The kind that comes from mistakes
The kind that won't go away
When I turned around
They were right there to remind me

I've seen regret
The kind that messes with your head
The failures and the can't forgets
But standing here now
I'm thanking God it's behind me

Cause I've seen nail scarred hands
Reach out and wipe it all away

Now I see grace
Hallelujah I stand amazed
I'm staring at an empty grave
And the stone that You rolled away
When I was a prodigal
You saw a son
When I left the 99
You saw the one
And just like that
All my past has been erased
When I look back
I see grace

I still hurt
Fall short of what You say I'm worth
And that devil says I don't deserve
What You did on the cross
And he's right cause I don't
But You did it anyway

I see grace
Hallelujah I stand amazed
I'm staring at an empty grave
And the stone that You rolled away
When I was a prodigal
You saw a son
When I left the 99
You saw the one
And just like that all my past has been erased
When I look back
I see grace, grace
God's grace
Grace that is greater than all my sin
Thank God almighty
Gonna sing it again
Oh grace, grace
God's grace
Grace that is greater than all my sin

I see grace
Hallelujah I stand amazed
I'm staring at an empty grave
And the stone that You rolled away
I was a prodigal
You saw a son
When I left the 99
You saw the one
And just like that all my past has been erased
When I look back
I see grace, grace
God's grace (I see grace)
Grace that is greater than all my sin
Thank God almighty
Gonna sing it again

Grace oh grace
God's grace
Grace that is greater than all my sin
