Grace Will Be Dancing
Grace Will Be Dancing
By Curtis Johnson
2 Corinthians 9:12 NIV
Far from the peaceful and prosperous shores of America
A blessed e-mail came one day from a lady in Africa
I always rejoice in my spirit and cry in my heart
When Grace is so thankful for our little part
Because of a gift, she has been greatly relieved
She’s happy now that she can pay some school fees
She will buy sugar for grandma and something for herself
She said that a friend name Gerald went to a village to start a church
She will share the gift with him, because she fills bless with much
She said that she has a favorite song to which she will be dancing
Grace said that because she cannot sing that she will dance
Perhaps her friends also know her song, but they may not
Know the total reason that she is dancing
No doubt they will here the same outward music
But I am certain, Grace hears a difference beat, deep
Within her heart; and that’s the music to which she is dancing
At her friend’s wedding, Grace will be dancing
At her church, while others are singing her favorite song,
So happy and so grateful, Grace will, so gracefully, be dancing.
