throw your hands up. [and make sure your eyes follow]
You have ordained every breath we take
In pleasure or pain, there is no mistake
Gladness and grief, both are in Your hand
And sufferings brief carry out Your plan
And our fleeting sorrows will yield an endless prize
When some bright tomorrow we’ll see You with our eyes,
Grace upon grace flows down, flows down
Grace upon grace flows down, flows down
Through the precious blood of Christ.
Father of lights, Giver of all grace
Your mercies crown our lives all our days.
River of Life, quench our thirsty souls
For no true delight does Your love withhold.
And in every season we are satisfied
For just one reason Christ was crucified,
Grace upon grace flows down, flows down
Grace upon grace flows down, flows down
Through the precious blood of Christ.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 "9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness " Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong."
You have grace for this.
You have grace for my redemption.
You have grace for my forgiveness.
You have grace for my adoption.
You have grace for all my sins.
You have grace for every fear.
You have grace for every joy.
You have grace for every blessing.
You have grace for every trial.
You have grace for every decision.
You have grace for every decision poorly made.
You have grace that will finish the good work in me that You started.
You have grace to bless me.
and You give it to me if only I ask...
so, i ask... and i will wait for you...
Help me Lord, I can't see
What You have in store for me
Even though all seems dark
Help me, Lord, to trust your heart
I am tired, I am weak
Are You listening to me?
You seem so far, far from here
Now I need You to be near
I throw myself into Your arms
Resting in tenderness and love
You are the Lord, and I bow to You
Lord I will always follow You
Hold me close, Holy One
Let Your loving comfort come
Help me pray, by Your Son
Not my will but Yours be done
I throw myself into Your arms
Resting in tenderness and love
You are the Lord, and I bow to You
Lord I will always follow You
