From the band’s album Homemade Worship By Handmade People, “Second Chance” was written to create an avenue for natural, authentic connection to God through worship. Rend Collective is a group of musicians from Northern Ireland, who wanted to write songs with authentic spirituality for our increasingly artificial world.
Second Chance Lyrics
Oh, your cross, it changes everything
There my world begins again with you
Oh, your cross, it’s where my hope restarts
A second chance is Heaven’s heart
My future hangs on this
You make preciousness from dust
Please don’t stop creating me
You blood offers the chance
To rewind to innocence
Reborn perfect as a child
Oh, your cross, it changes everything
There my world begins again with you
Oh, your cross, it’s where my hope restarts
A second chance is Heaven’s heart
When sin and ugliness
Collide with redemption’s kiss
Beauty awakens my romance
Always inside this mess
I have found forgiveness
Mercy infinite as you
Oh, your cross, it changes everything
There my world begins again with you
Oh, your cross, it’s where my hope restarts
A second chance is Heaven’s heart
Countless!
Countless second chances we’ve been given at the cross
Countless second chances we’ve been given at the cross
Fragments of brokenness
Salvaged by the art of grace
You craft life from our mistakes
Like skies of my regrets
Outshined by his kindness
New life dawns over my soul
Oh, your cross, it changes everything
There my world begins again with you
Oh, your cross, it’s where my hope restarts
A second chance is Heaven’s heart
