Joanne Liaw Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Gracious God Above

Dedicated to a dear friend for putting words into tune

Gracious God above, grant me grace
Grant me grace in the trials I face
Grant me peace when I’m ill at ease
In You alone I find release

Gracious God above, grant me grace
Grant me grace as I run this race
Grant me joy despite endless toils
Storing riches that do not spoil

Gracious God above, grant me grace
Grant me grace to walk in good pace
Grant me love from heav’n above
Help me love with Your love

She even knows how to play our church's pipe organ and a bit of the bass guitar. When I have the chance to, I will make an audio recording of my singing and her piano playing :)

I have uploaded the audio recording of the tune. It's just piano playing as I haven't had the chance to sit down with my friend to sing the words with her piano accompaniment :) Tell me what you think about the tune :)
