Official Lyric Video for "Lead Us To Repentance" by Sovereign Grace Music
Written by Nathan Stiff and Bob Kauflin
From the Album "Yours Alone"
Most of us know the shame, guilt, condemnation, and fear that descends upon us after giving in to sin. Whether it's a consistent battle or a one time fall, our impulse is to run as far as we can from God and others. We hope that hiding will somehow fix things. But it never does.
What a comfort to know that God sees our sins, knows our fears, and invites us to run TO him, not AWAY from him. Paul reminds us in his letter to the Romans that, “God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance.” (Romans 2:4) That kindness was shown in giving up his only Son to be our substitute on the cross. Jesus himself bled and died for us, so we could not only be forgiven but clothed in his righteousness. In Christ, we don't approach God as a stern judge, but as a loving Father. How can we not want to turn from our sin and live for his glory Because even when we fall, he is never far.

LEAD US TO REPENTANCE LYRICS
VERSE 1
Lord, where can we hide? There’s nothing hidden from Your sight
You know every heart, You’ve seen the depths of who we are
But when our shame says “run,” Your mercy calls us home
CHORUS
Lead us to repentance, make us know Your presence
Even when we fall, You are never far
Draw us with your kindness, with You there’s forgiveness
Condemnation’s gone, all the work is done, lead us to repentance
VERSE 2
There’s no greater love, our Savior bled and died for us
Guilty ones are dressed in Jesus’ perfect righteousness
So when we go astray, Lord, give us grace to pray
CHORUS
Lead us to repentance, make us know Your presence
Even when we fall, You are never far
Draw us with your kindness, with You there’s forgiveness
Condemnation’s gone, all the work is done, lead us to repentance
BRIDGE
Father, Your lovingkindness never has failed to find us
You have been patient with us, You always will be
Father, Your lovingkindness never has failed to find us
You have been patient with us, You always will be
CHORUS
Lead us to repentance, make us know Your presence
Even when we fall, You are never far
Draw us with your kindness, with You there’s forgiveness
Condemnation’s gone, all the work is done, lead us to repentance
Lead us to repentance, make us know Your presence
Even when we fall, You are never far
Draw us with your kindness, with You there’s forgiveness
Condemnation’s gone, all the work is done, lead us to repentance
