Peace in the Grace

from Picture Postcards by C.D. Onofrio

/

about

I played "amazing grace" for a woman who had alzheimer's. When she started singing her whole family was surprised and delighted and had me play all the folk standards and hymns I knew. It was the first time that I witnessed that music had that kind of magic.

lyrics

fixtures and friendships
these things are blessed
angel, my weakness
are these things when not said

Cause what`s worse than too find that these words that I write
are all lies and mean only nothing

These days are filled with
silence and asides
fill me to find out
what this love is about

cause what's worse than to find
that these wars that we fight
are all lies and we die for nothing

I found peace in the Grace
I forgave the mistakes
I forged tools out of chains
and I am not scared to change

friendships and fixtures
these things are absurd
fill me to find out
what this life is about

cause what's worse than to find
that God's words were all lies
and your eyes they stare out at nothing?

I found peace in the Grace
I forgave the mistakes
I forged tools out of chains
and I am not scared to change

and I remember Gethsemane
and I will pray for the enemy.
