is an understatement
in the span of the week
there has been
so much
all that was unseen
the sleepless
f e a r i n g
and
t r u s t i n g
was transformed before me
sovereign is he
precious is he
who sees
who controls
who provides
whose mercy
is so
overwhelming
oh
this is more than an abundance of lovely
this is an abundance of grace
“And God is able to make all grace abound toward you;
that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things,
may abound to every good work” – 2 Corinthians 9:8
yes
you are abundant Lord
your grace is so abundant in my life
in your son
and i thank you
for my life
for your son
for what he has done
l i f e
moves so fast
but
thank you for being one step ahead of me
always being ready
patiently preparing me
i thank you for the song my life has become
because of you
a song of mercy
of love
of your goodness to me
Father
i pray for those who do not know the abundance of your grace
those who are lost or hurting
Father
cradle them in your arms
comfort them in their hour of need
Father
for all those who are suffering
who are struggling
who are doubting
have mercy
make your grace abound
make yourself known
may they know
may they receive
this mercy
Father
draw more into your loving arms
and
may your promises continue to bring peace
to be reminders of your mercy
that you are a God of fulfilling
of beginning
of ending
of all that’s in-between
and for all eternity
Father
may your will
your plan
your calling
come to be
Father
thank you for the clarity that comes from your word
for the direction of your grace
for
d e l i v e r a n c e
for
an outpouring of your love
Father
may the happenings of each day
lead me to praise
lead me to proclaim
your glory
your mercy
this newness i can only claim
in Christ name
to him belongs the highest praise
for all my days
