Pardon My Dust Lyrics

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

What is the Meaning of Pardon My Dust?

This is a beautiful concept that fits the "Please be patient; God's not finished with me yet" mantra. Too often in the church Christians can get judgmental, forgetting that Christ came for sinners, not for saints. Rice's song is a great reminder that we ALL have left burned bridges, relationship rubble, and life messes. It's a call to fellow Christians to stop shaking fingers and instead extend a hand to help a brother out. Great song!
