Holiday Songtext
von Tony Vincent
Holiday Songtext
I couldn't catch my breath
I almost worked myself to death
Thinking i could earn your love,
Be good enough to get to heaven
I had no hope to celebrate
Beneath the weight of my own burden
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
Love became a holiday
I played the perfect part
Thinking—i could justify my heart to you
But you revealed the truth to me
So i could see my true condition
What i thought was righteousness
Was nothing less that blind ambition
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
And love became a holiday
I could never keep up with what i had to do
Till your freedom left me with
Peace and nothing left to prove
But you revealed the truth to me
So i could see my true condition
What i thought was righteousness
Was nothing less that blind ambition
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
And love became a holiday
I almost worked myself to death
Thinking i could earn your love,
Be good enough to get to heaven
I had no hope to celebrate
Beneath the weight of my own burden
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
Love became a holiday
I played the perfect part
Thinking—i could justify my heart to you
But you revealed the truth to me
So i could see my true condition
What i thought was righteousness
Was nothing less that blind ambition
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
And love became a holiday
I could never keep up with what i had to do
Till your freedom left me with
Peace and nothing left to prove
But you revealed the truth to me
So i could see my true condition
What i thought was righteousness
Was nothing less that blind ambition
But you came
And every day became a holiday
Memories of my hollow days
Are scattered on a sea of grace
You came
And every day became a holiday
Disbelief was turned to faith
And love became a holiday
