1.

In life’s battles give me grace, dear Lord, I pray
With vision uplifted to You.
I’ll walk with full assurance on life’s way
Until my life’s course here is through.

2.

Even though my strength by You has been brought low—
Afflicted my spirit may be—
Yet to Your promise firmly I will hold.
Your grace is sufficient for me.

3.

I am weak, but that cannot keep me away
From all of Your love unto me.
For it is in this weakness I’ll one day
Perfected in holiness be.

4.

Lord, Your grace is like a vast and mighty sea,
Abounding in mercy and love.
The lowly, weak, and poor You chose to be
Joint heirs of Your glory above.
