His Grace is Enough For Me

(note: This was written in 2016 when I was in a battle with cancer.  I am cancer free today)

My friends I am fighting a cancer
That has settled in all over me
And though I must walk through this valley
His grace is enough for me

In a short time I will take chemo
I will be sick and full of dis-ease
But I know that he's right there with me
His grace is enough for me

And when I am weak and so tired
And my eyelids so week I can't see
I will still hear his voice whisper softly
His grace is enough for me

And when it seems I'm at my weakest
And it takes all my effort to breathe
I will look up and say to my Savior
Your Grace is enough for me

This cancer just cannot defeat me
Even though I get weary and weak
I'll always remember this one thing
His grace is enough for me

I know that His Spirit is guiding
And I know the He’ll comfort me
So why should I dread and worry?
His grace is enough for me

And when I am done with this journey
And this cancer is all out of me
I will look up to heaven and praise Him
His grace was enough for me

Merciful Savior

When I begin to think about
What Jesus did for me
I always must remember
The day He set me free 

My sins were overwhelming
I couldn’t find my way
I tried so many other things
That just led me astray

But Jesus said He’d rescue me
From the depths of sin
I needed to escape my past
And find some peace within

Oh, what a merciful Savior
Oh, what grace divine
Jesus is my answer
Jesus now is mine

So I sat down and prayed a prayer
And asked Him in my heart
There was no doubt He touched me
As I felt Him from the start

From that day on He stayed with me
I grew in His embrace
And now I trust Him every day
To cover me with grace

My heart shouts out His praises
As I lift my voice in song
He’s all I ever needed
With Him I can’t go wrong

Oh, what a merciful Savior
Oh, what grace divine
Jesus is my answer
Jesus now is mine


Awesome Grace

I can't imagine
What God will do today
Every day is a new miracle
When I trust His way 

Nobody ever knows 
The blessings that will come
When I yield to His spirit
And trust in His love

Today might bring trials
That challenge my faith 
Designed so I'll run
To His awesome grace

Sickness may come
In the midst of the night
Will I trust on His healing?
To end my plight?

Friends might desert me
And ruin my name
It's then I need Jesus
To weather the pain

Days are not always 
Blessings and joy
There are times in the valley
When we need to grow

So God allows these things
To strengthen our faith
If we’ll only just trust 
In His awesome grace

Amazing grace
From God above
Sent us His son
Gave us His love
How sweet the sound
What melody
Is His sweet mercy
Unto me

Amazing grace
His blood was shed
His back was bruised
The pierced His head 
No tongue can tell
Or words can say
The price He paid
For me that day

Amazing grace
He came to die
To take our sins
And give us life
The angels sing
The heavens roar
Of His great love
Forevermore

Amazing grace
He loved me so
He bore the cross
His love to show
Forgiving me
Of all my shame
Now I will praise
His mighty name

Amazing grace
He rose again
He conquered death
And now He reigns
Soon He will come
Back for me
I’ll be with Him
Eternally
Grace & Mercy

Merciful God

He could have left us in our sinful condition
Left us no hope and no ambition
Left us in deep despair within our hearts
He didn't have to send His own son
To die on a cross our souls to ransom
He didn't have to come into my heart

But He loved us so much He gave us
His only Son to die and save us
Mercy was given long ago on the cross

Merciful God, so full of goodness
Merciful God, you always loved us
Even when we were deep in sin and shame,
Merciful God, I sing this love song
Merciful God, I praise your one Son
Jesus my Lord, I praise your holy name

Jesus, Savior and Lord
Jesus, the one I adore
Jesus, the King of all Kings
Jesus, master of all things
Jesus, I love you forever
Jesus, your grace is a favor
Jesus, merciful God to me.

His Grace Is Greater

His grace is greater
Than all my troubles
He watches o’er me
When I fall down

His grace is greater
Than all my weakness
He keeps me floating
When I could drown

His grace is greater
Than all my struggles
He walks beside me
When I’m alone

His grace is greater
Than my temptations
He speaks so softly
And gives me hope
Just enough for today
And not for tomorrow
Yesterday’s grace is gone
Day after day
Like the manna from heaven
I have to depend on Him

Grace, grace, Great grace
Greater than all my life could need
Grace, grace
God’s grace
Grace that is greater than anything.

Partakers of His Grace

Leave a reply 
We are partakers of His grace
Jesus Christ died to extend His grace to us
Grace that forgives sin
Grace that sets the captive free
Grace that heals the sick
Grace that opens blinded eyes
Grace that raises the dead
Grace that makes the lame to walk
Grace that Loves unconditionally

Are we extending that grace to others?
Are we forgiving those who sin against us?
Are we setting captives free by proclaiming victory in their lives?
I we praying for the sick in faith, so that they recover?
Are we opening eyes that are blinded to the truth?
Are we raising up those that are spiritually dead?
Are we helping the young Christians to walk?
Are we showing His love to everyone we meet?
Don’t just be a partaker in His grace - allow others to partake of yours!

Trust Your Grace

Leave a reply 
When the day seems long and dreary
And I'm tired of running the race 
I can turn my eyes to you
And trust your grace

When my aches and pains are many
And my life seems out of place 
I can set my mind on you
And trust your grace

When the bills are piling higher 
And the debt will not erase 
I can rest my heart in you
And trust your grace

When it seems that I am all alone
And I can't get any praise
I can turn my life to you
And trust your grace

No matter what 
No matter where
No matter how
No matter why
No matter when
I can trust your grace
Forever

Your Mercy

I seek your mercy, Lord
All that is within me needs your mercy, Lord
I seek your mercy, Lord
A heart that wanders from you longs for mercy, Lord
Let mercy bring new life to me

You move the mountains
You calm the sea
Sit on the throne in majesty
Why do you think of me?
Why do you care for me?
Why did you die for me?
Out of mercy, Your mercy.

Come fill my soul with peace.
Come now and rescue me
Come bring new life to me
By your mercy, your mercy

Today

God of mercy.  God of grace
Come and fill us in this place
May we feel your warm embrace
Today

God of wisdom.  God of power
Come and touch of hearts this hour
May your love come overpower
Today

Fill me, Lord.  Fill me with your righteousness
Fill me, Lord.  Fill me with your holiness
Fill me, Lord.  How I know that I am blessed
You have given all for me
I will fall down on my knees
Lift my hands and give you praise
Today.
