How Great is
Thy Grace
How great is thy grace, O Lord
That it would sustain my soul?
Bringing life and joy to this Thy vessel
With blessings so rich and full.
If I Your servant could describe
The immensity of Your touch
I fear that I would deceive myself
And would, as a fool, not assume enough.
For Thy grace defies explanation
It’s far more than a simple comprehension.
There’s majesty in that act of Yours.
Much more than comes to my attention.
I speak as a man, for I am just that
Though saved by the love of my Lord.
By His sovereign act and choice of life
I am placed with Him in one accord.
Through the pain and suffering this present life can bring,
Thy grace does keep me strong.
Though frustrated with imperfection in this world
I am kept safe and secured to carry on.
Your grace holds the strength needed in the opportunity
To serve and please the One I love.
By living with peace surpassing all understanding
And relying upon hope
I am convinced with exceeding joy
That I’ll soon see the Lord of all Who sits upon the throne above.
Though the grace of God cannot be fully realized.
I do know what I’ve been taught.
Though it is not fully understood, it remains a fact
Grace is what God hath wrought.
Marcus Twisdale,
