1 "My grace is sufficient for thee,"
O blessed the word of our Lord;
Whatever thy trials shall be,
"Remember, remember My word.

Chorus:
My grace is sufficient for thee;
My grace is sufficient for thee;
Whatever thy burden or care,
"My grace is sufficient for thee."

2 "My grace is sufficient for thee,"
O take the sweet words to thy heart;
This thought shall thy gladness e'er be,
'Twill strength for life's battle impart. [Chorus]

Tho' sorrow and evil distress,
And strong thy temptations may be,
This promise thy soul shall caress. [Chorus]
