The
Grace of God
My
"My
grace," 'tis the God of all grace who hath spoken,
Whose word in the heavens
forever is set;
Whose covenant promise hath never been broken;
Who never
can fail or forget;
Who knoweth my needs and who seeth my sorrows,
However
so many and great they may be;
Who heareth my prayers for the days and the
morrows;
His grace is sufficient for me.
Grace
"My
grace;" all His blessings this work is unfolding,
His love and
His power in harmony blend;
'Tis grace that hath saved me, and grace that is
holding,
And grace that will keep to the end;
'Tis grace that hath written
redemption's glad story,
And grace all the song of the ransomed shall be;
'Tis
grace that transforms me from glory to glory;
That grace is sufficient for
me.
Is
"My
grace is," not "was," and not "will be;" 'tis
flowing
Each hour and each moment my need to supply,
The deeper I dip, still
the deeper 'tis growing,
No drought can diminish or dry;
My heart from the
future no trouble shall borrow;
Eternal this present provision shall be,
Assured
for today and as sure for tomorrow,
Such grace is sufficient for me.
Sufficient
"My
grace is sufficient." Oh, help without measure!
An ocean of riches
no plummet can sound,
A storehouse unfailing of infinite treasure,
A gift
without limit or bound;
Exceeding abundant for all His creation,
Enough
for the thorn that is buffeting me,
The fulness of God for earth's brief tribulation
-
"My grace is sufficient for thee."
For
Thee.
"Sufficient
for thee," for my utmost salvation,
As though ne'er another had
owed Him a debt;
For my special grief and my special temptation,
My cares
and my sins that beset;
He giveth more grace for my humble endeavour;
I
am praising Him now, I shall praise Him forever;
His grace is sufficient for
me.

2 Corinthians
12:9 And he said unto me,
My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength
is made perfect
in weakness. Most gladly therefore
will I rather glory
in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
