The Size Of God's Grace

How will we know the size of God's grace
If we're not tested beyond our endurance?
How will we learn just how great it is
If we don't need His strength and assurance?

He fills the gap our shortcomings leave
By pouring out grace in sufficient amount.
His grace is greater than all of our need,
Constantly flowing... a Heavenly fount.

How we would fail, how bruised we would be,
If we did not have God's mercy and grace.
Grace is the bridge between weakness and strength
Which helps us to run a victorious race.

"And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness."
II Corinthians 12:9 KJV
