"Grace Found Me" by KIDJAZ: How Grace Rescues and Restores


"Grace Found Me" by KIDJAZ is a very personal and relatable song about the redemption that came after battling a 15-year opioid addiction that started after knee surgery. Roy Gonzales is the artist behind the name KIDJAZ, and this song is a testament to how God's grace found him when he needed it most. Roy shares that you shouldn't give up, even if life looks dark for you. You can overcome! Jesus is there for you!

KIDJAZ - Grace Found MeRoy grew up as a preacher's kid, he knew 'about' God, but he didn't know God. Even though he was in a horrible dark place in his life, he learned that God doesn't look at our failures… God looks at our potential! What Roy experienced with God's transformative love was something so different that it completely changed his life.

Roy captures the power of God's grace in the lyrics: "Was lost, confused / My life I couldn't navigate… Now made solid, rebuilt / With God's amazing grace." He also describes the healing that came once he surrendered—"Healed the wounds / Wiped tears from my eyes." We need to realize that it is by His grace that we are saved, and grace is His gift to us, one that comes through faith and not by works (Ephesians 2:8–9). In return we express our gratitude, "Grace, it saved me / Real talk, no lie."

What makes this track special is its authenticity—this is not some theory based on scripture research. It is based on a real-life situation filled with darkness and plenty of excuses that keep us in darkness. This is a story of hope, where His grace finds us when we need it the most. His grace truly changes everything if you are willing to let go and be healed.

(Related scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9; Titus 3:5; Isaiah 43:2)

His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day."
