  • Grace
    She takes the blame
    She covers the shame
    Removes the stain
    It could be her name

    Grace
    It's the name for a girl
    It's also a thought that
    Changed the world

    And when she walks on the street
    You can hear the strings
    Grace finds goodness
    In everything

    Grace
    She's got the walk
    Not on a ramp or on chalk
    She's got the time to talk

    She travels outside
    Of karma, karma
    She travels outside
    Of karma

    When she goes to work
    You can hear her strings
    Grace finds beauty
    In everything

    Grace
    She carries a world on her hips
    No champagne flute for her lips
    No twirls or skips between her fingertips

    She carries a pearl
    In perfect condition
    What once was hurt
    What once was friction
    What left a mark
    No longer stings

    Because Grace makes beauty
    Out of ugly things

    Grace finds beauty
    In everything

    Grace finds goodness in everything Writer/s: Adam Clayton, Dave Evans, Larry Mullen, Paul Hewson
