Lyrics
Jimmy Tucker, he was always no good
Wrecking our neighborhood, keeping everyone scared
A dozen tattoos, a ring through his nose,
Only Fifteen years old and knows life isn’t fair
Does he like where he’s goin’, is his rage a disguise
Then he turns and I notice Jesus there in his eyes
And I recognize grace
Ginger always wears fishnets and heels
And a blouse that reveals how she earns her way
Walks down Main Street, every night it’s the same
Men call her by name and she knows what they’ll pay
Does she like where she’s goin’, is her smile a disguise
Then she turns and I notice Jesus there in her eyes
And I recognize grace
If we look deeper
Than the surface of a strangers face
We’ll find the Redeemer
Staring at us from the most unlikely place
INSTRUMENTAL
Chorus
Dressed in blue, got a badge on his chest
In a place of unrest so his job never ends
He’s the first one people call in the night
For another mans fight where nobody will win
but He keeps right on goin’ even though he’s despised
Then he turns and I notice Jesus there in his eyes
And I recognize grace
I recognize grace
