Saints and Sinners
Koryn Hawthorne's 'Saints & Sinners' is a contemporary gospel song about God's grace transforming broken people. The lyrics speak to the struggle of staying on the right path and the temptation to give up, but find hope in God's love and grace. Hawthorne emphasizes that everyone—from preachers to drug dealers—needs God's grace, which turns sinners into saints. The song references being carried through dark times and trusting God's plan, echoing themes of redemption and perseverance. It connects to the biblical idea that grace is sufficient for all, regardless of past mistakes.
You're Grace makes all Saints out if Sinners...
Guide my heart, hold my hand, as I try to walk the path
So much potential, so many thoughts, lead me so, I don't get lost
If I get lost, along the way, I need your grace, I need your grace
Something I'm feeling just takes over me, I just want to give up
Know how it is when you lose everything, something about your love
Let's me know that the story's not over it's just the start
And in my darkest hour, you know my heart
We all need you preachers, deacons, thugs, and drug dealers
Your Grace makes all Saints out of Sinners
Now I've tried my ways
But the way that I need is yours
I look to you when it's all right
I'll look to you when it's all wrong
Please, remind me, when I get low
What you see when you look at me
What I know I can be
Something I'm feeling just takes over me, I just want to give up
Know how it is when you lose everything, something about your love
Let's me know that the story's not over it's just the start
And in my darkest hour, you know my heart
We all need you preachers, deacons, thugs, and drug dealers
Your Grace makes all Saints out of Sinners
You said you would never go
So I need you to walk, I need you to talk
I need you to hold me close
Please be my fence Lord
In those darkest times I see
One set of foot steps
Walking in the sand
I know that you carry me
And one thing I know, that I'm sure
The story's not over, it's just the start
And in my darkest hours, you know my heart
We all need you preachers, deacons, thugs, and drug dealers
Your Grace makes all Saints out of Sinners
(Your Grace, Your Grace, Your Grace and Mercy...)
(We need your Love...)
(All my life is in Your hands...)
