I have tried in great detail
To earn your love but always failed
To find you
The love that I had tried to earn
Was a gift that I soon learned
Was yours to give
So I lay myself down took in your grace and now am found
Inside you
Chorus
Covered by your love / covered by your blood /
Covered by your righteousness
Covered by your love / covered by your blood /
Covered by your righteousness
Iâm coâve-red / Iâm co-ve-red / Iâm co-ve-red by you
Now that I'm found I will stay
Your love it carries me each day
And surrounds me
Lord all I want to say
Is I look forward to the day
I can see your face
So I lay myself down and in your rest I now am found
Inside you
