Grace - Laura Story

My heart is so proud.

My mind is so unfocused.

I see the things

You do through me

as great things I have done.

And now You gently break me,

then lovingly You take me

And hold me as my father

and mold me as my maker.

I ask you:

How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall

short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?

And You answer:

My child, I love you.

And as long

as you re seeking My face,

You ll walk in the power

of My daily sufficient grace.

At times I may grow weak

and feel a bit discouraged,

Knowing that someone,

somewhere could do a better job.

For who am I to serve You?

I know I don t deserve You.

And that s the part

that burns in my heart

and keeps me hanging on.

I ask you:

How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time

I will fall short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?

And You answer:

My child, I love you.

And as long

as you re seeking My face,

You ll walk in the power

of My daily sufficient grace.

You are so patient with me, Lord.

As I walk with You,

I m learning what Your grace

really means.

The price that I could never pay

was paid at Calvary.

So, instead of trying to repay You,

I m learning to simply obey You

By giving up my life to you

For all that You ve given to me.

I ask you:

How many times will you pick me up,

When I keep on letting you down?

And each time

I will fall short of Your glory,

How far will forgiveness abound?

And You answer:

My child, I love you.

And as long as you re seeking My face,

You ll walk in the power

of My daily sufficient grace.
