Grace Abounds

When everything around me’s shaken
When trials tempt me to despair
And I feel like my own heart has hardened
Towards sorrow that’s too great to bear
When life has left me disillusioned
When hostility and hatred seem to win
Each headline that I read
Brings me to my knees again
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds
When couples suffer long in silence
Regretting that they dared to dream
When forgiveness is too hard to fathom
For a chasm that runs so deep
In every lonely night of waiting
In every desperate cry and bated prayer
In the moment when my faith is failing
I find You there
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds
Hold fast my heart, in trouble’s wake
My faith is small, but my God is great
And You said You would be near, the broken
And on my loneliest of days, I’m never alone
And I know You will bring peace
Surpassing what my mind can know
So steady now my weary soul
O love that never lets me go
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds…
