Your Grace is Sufficient
by Jonathan Antonini © 2001

My health is all but gone,
My strength from me has fled
For Healing's touch I long,
As I draw near my deathbed

But Your Grace is sufficient for me
No matter how hard the trials may be
And I will continually seek to see
That all things work out for good to me

All my finances are lost
And I have fallen into dept's pit
For I cannot pay the cost
And in bankruptcy I shall sit

But Your Grace is sufficient for me
No matter how hard the trials may be
And now you have opened my eyes to see
All the Heavenly treasure that is for me

My friends no longer care
And abandon me in my darkest hour
Their time with me, they will not share
And throw me to loneliness' power

But Your Grace is sufficient for me
No matter how hard the trials may be
And though loneliness is what I feel
God's presence is all the more real

Paul was beaten and cast down
His face a bloody red
But his convictions were firm and sound
And this is what he said:

Your Grace is sufficient for me
No matter how hard the trials may be
For I have been crucified for thee
And it is now Christ that lives in me!
