Pardon My Dust Lyrics - What A Heart Is Beating For - Chris Rice

Pardon my dust, excuse the mess 

we're making somethin' new out of all of this 

I'm saying my prayers, and I'm trying to change 

so give me some time, 'cause I'm still finding my way 

Why are you lookin' at me this way? 

pointing your finger, shakin' your head 

how 'bout some love along the way, instead 

Pardon my dust, excuse this mess 

I've left a trail of debris, so you've gotta be 

very careful where you step 

I've made some mistakes, so what? 

Done quite a few things wrong 

Could you roll up your tidy sleeves and help a brother along? 

(Chorus) 

Pardon my dust, excuse the mess 

Please don't be another judge I need to try to impress 

Stop calling me names, stop casting your stones 

let the good Lord sort this all out when we are all at home 

Pardon my dust, excuse my mess 

help me believe there's gonna be something beautiful on the other side of this 

have patience with me, I'm still sweeping floors 

so pardon my dust, I'll pardon yours
