Representative Text

1 The world is filled with sorrow
And sin of ev’ry kind;
But Jesus sweetly keeps me
And gives me grace to shine.

Chorus:
His grace is sufficient for me,
To keep me on land or sea;
O glory to Jesus,
His grace is sufficient for me.

2 When evils fierce assail me,
I look to God and pray,
He gives me grace sufficient
To keep me ev’ry day. [Chorus]

3 When dearest friends are leaving,
And hindrances abound,
He gives me grace and courage,
And helps me stand my ground. [Chorus]

4 When in affliction’s valley,
Down near the Jordan tide,
He gives me joy and comfort,
And never leaves my side. [Chorus]
