Your Grace

Before the day that I was born Your grace and love prepared my way You molded me, throughout the years And made me who I am today The more I grow, the more I know The more I live, more proof I see That through each moment of my life Your grace has been pursuing me At times your grace was clearly seen At times it wasn’t seen at all You lavished it upon my life In ways so grand, in ways so small You hold no record of my sins Your grace has thrown them in the sea Your love is past what I could know Your grace has been pursuing me And when my path was set in flames When floods of fear swept over me When darkness tried to cloud my sight Oh, where was grace? I couldn’t see But then, You sent deliverance And like a cloak, peace covered me When freed, I saw that through it all Your grace had been pursuing me I know that as the years go by I surely shall know pain and strife Your grace will still sustain my heart No matter where I go in life Whenever any trial comes I cling to faith and trust in Thee No matter what life’s path shall bring Your grace will keep pursuing me When through the vale of death I walk In wars, with me Your grace shall go Your grace pursues me faster than The quickest, cruelest, strongest foe My hope, my confidence is this The Rock on which I stand is Thee In poignant pain, in greatest grief Your grace will keep pursuing me And even when I fail or fall Your grace is there to raise me up Your joy and peace shall never cease Your blessings overflow my cup Your grace will guard me till the day That in Your house, I live with Thee Forever, to the length of days Your grace will keep pursuing me
