Representative Text

1. Gladly the will of my Lord I obey;
He is my Keeper from day unto day;
He is my Guide, and He knoweth the way,
His grace is sufficient for me.

Refrain
His grace is sufficient for me,
His grace is sufficient for me;
Then why should I fear, with a Savior so dear?
His grace is sufficient for me.

2. Not over things of the world will I grieve;
All that He sends I will gladly receive,
Satisfied just to look up and believe,
His grace is sufficient for me. [Refrain]

3. Tho’ I may see but one step at a time,
As up the pathway to glory I climb,
Yet I believe in the promise divine,
His grace is sufficient for me. [Refrain]

4. Living, I’ll serve Him wherever I go,
E’en tho’ it be where the dark waters flow;
Dying, I’ll praise Him, for well I do know,
His grace is sufficient for me. [Refrain]

5. When I shall stand face to face with my King,
Still to the word of His promise I’ll cling,
And with the ransomed forever I’ll sing—
His grace is sufficient for me. [Refrain]
