A Beautiful Rendition

My granddaughters love the singer Ed Sheeran. (And, I'm quite partial to his red hair. heehee)

They came across this youtube video by a sweet girl named Philippa Hanna, who does a beautiful rendition of Mr. Sheeran's "Perfect".


I wanted to share. Hope you appreciate it as much as we do.

Ahhh.... this feels like a big risk... but I did something a little different today! Here is Ed Sheeran's amazing hit song 'Perfect' with a Gospel makeover! I have a habit of doing gospel makeovers of pop songs in my head just for fun. Usually its a bit daft and I'd never think of singing it out loud (haha). But this time I couldn't let go of this idea and every line just came to me. So I thought I'd share it with you! Recorded this very simply in my dining room.


Just for the record, I LOVE Ed Sheeran and the original is a beautiful song. No disrespect meant at all and I hope ya'll see this as a tribute to his music and not sabotage :-)


Thanks for watching!

Sending love today and always....

Philippa xx


Perfect Grace (Lyrics)

I found a love, for me

So I'm gonna dive right in and follow your lead

I found a love, beautiful and sweet

I never knew, all of this time it was waiting for me


I was so lost when I found your love

Not knowing what it was

Broken until I saw your light

In a moment you made me whole

Took me and led me home

Now, I'm not afraid to testify


Oh, I I was dancing in the dark

When I saw your open arms

Barefoot on the cross

And now I hear you in every song

When my life was still a mess

You saw something beautiful

I don't deserve it, but your grace is perfect tonight


I found a saviour, stronger than darkness

He takes my fears, and I never fear I'm alone

I found a saviour, to carry more than just my secrets

To carry love, and every burden in my soul


I was so lost when I found your love

Standing against all odds

I know I'll make it through somehow

What was once lost is redeemed

A heart once in chains now free

And I"m not afraid to testify


Jesus I,

I was dancing in the dark

When I saw your open arms

Barefoot on the cross

And now I hear you in every song

When my life was still a mess

You saw something beautiful

I don't deserve it, but your grace is perfect tonight


Oh, I

When I'm dancing in the dark

I will raise my weary arms

And thank you for the cross

And a grace that's enough for anyone

Cuz you found me in a mess

And saw something beautiful

I don't deserve it but your Grace is perfect

I don't feel worth it, but your Grace is perfect tonight
