Record of Grace

I heard the old record spin in the dusk lit room

Cracks in the needle, but the message came through

A humble song rising like a chapel flame

Simple as a prayer calling out His name

Oh, let it play

Like earnest flag tonight

Where the weary heart finds its way back to the light

Through the dust and the sorrow

Through the long, long road

There's a hand in the valley

And a hand to hold

Daddy said the truth don't need a fancy stage

Just a steady voice and a soul unchained

So I kept on listening when the world grew loud

To that country gospel rolling soft and proud

Oh, let it play like earnest flag tonight

Where the weary heart finds its way back to the light

Through the dust and the sorrow

Through the long, long road

There's a hem in the valley

And a hand to hold

When the night gets heavy and the road runs thin

I remember that mercy meets me where I've been

Every broken note turns into grace

When a faithful voice keeps time with Him

Oh, let play like earnest flag tonight

Where the weary heart finds its way back to the light

Through the dust and the sorrow

Through the long, long road

There's a hymn in the valley

And a hand to hold

There's a hymn in the valley

And a hand to hold
