LABOUR OF LOVE, BORN OF GRACE

Verse 1
I walked a lonely highway
With the world behind my back,
No surname chain upon me,
No Caesar’s legal track.
Just a Bible in my pocket,
And a prayer that never sleeps,
And the voice of Christ beside me saying,
“Child, My Word I keep.”

Chorus
This labour of love, born of grace,
Not of mammon, not of place.
Through the trial, through the night,
He is my strength, He is my Light.
Not for glory, not for pay—
Just to follow Christ each day.
This labour of love,
Born of grace.

Verse 2
They mocked the road I travelled,
Said the path was far too thin,
But the Spirit kept me walking
Past the noise and past the din.
And I felt the Father’s whisper,
Felt His breath upon my face:
“Though you stand alone on earth,
You stand upheld by grace.”

Chorus
This labour of love, born of grace…

Bridge
No legal man can claim me,
No paper owns my soul;
I stand redeemed in freedom
Where the Lamb has made me whole.
And the One who holds tomorrow
Walks beside me on this road—
For the Cross has borne my burden,
And the Word has eased my load.

Final Chorus
This labour of love, born of grace…
Yes, this labour of love—
Born of grace.
