Sometimes marriages don't work, and sometimes babies die Sometimes rehab turns to relapse and you're left just askin' why And for all the prayers I've prayed, I still wonder if He's real And if He is, how is He choosin' who He does and doesn't heal? I've tried to run from Jesus, I've started holy wars I've tried the patient waitin' and the kickin' down the doors I've cursed His name in anger with my fist raised to the sky And in return, all He's ever been is kind And I've burned my fair share of bridges I learned to tuck my tail and run Watch the wreckage in the rear view From all the crooked things I've done And I know that He forgives me But it's hard to forgive myself I can't help but think that amazing grace is for everybody else I've tried to run from Jesus, I've started holy wars I've tried the patient waitin' and the kickin' down the doors I've cursed His name in anger with my fist raised to the sky And in return, all He's ever been is kind All He's ever been is kind
And I know I wasn't there But when I look up at the cross I see the darkest day in history I guess that's what kindness cost I've tried to run from Jesus, I've started holy wars I've tried the patient waitin' and the kickin' down the doors He knows I don't deserve it But He's never changed His mind All He's ever been is kind All He's ever been is kind
