Verse 1:

When I was a young girl
Things came pretty easy
I could make people like me
Do all the right things
To be good enough

But when I got older
Things didn’t come so easy
Too many people to please
Standards to meet
Or fall short of

Pre-chorus 1:
Grace started making sense
‘Cause oh how I needed it
To be true

Jesus and what he’s done
Covered all of my not enough
I started seeing why they call this stuff
Good news

Chorus:
Good, good news

Verse 2:
I’m over the hill now
But you know I’m still learning
I got nothing to prove
Nothing left to do
I’m already loved
I’m already loved

Pre-Chorus 2:
Grace is still making sense
‘Cause oh how I need it
To be true
Thank God that it’s true

Jesus and what he’s done
Covers all of my not enough
I still see why they call this stuff
Good news

Verse 3:
When I get older
Well, I hope I’m still singing
Maybe not on the stage
But in all of the ways
That matter the most
