When I wake up in the morning And I commit my day to Thee - In thankfulness I praise you Knowing whatever the test may be - Thy grace is sufficient for me.
As I reach out in prayer Not knowing your plans for me As the day unfolds, I call to mind Paul's pleading - and your answer being My grace is sufficient for Thee.
So - like Paul I feel honoured in reproaches And distresses for Jesus name, I hold in my heart such a treasure store Of beauty and holiness - Enough - that His grace to me is the same.
For when I am weak Then I am strong - in Thy love poured into me, And tho Satan may try to cross my path, In the blood you shed - is my victory, And so surely, "Thy grace is sufficient for me".
At the close of day My heart o'erflows - In Thankfulness and praise - and the privilege Of yet another day - lived for Thee - And fulfillment of the promise - "Thy grace is sufficient for me". 25/11/86 |
