A Grace So Grand
by Effie Darlene Barba
My Lord, how can I understand
The Grace on which my faith doth stand?
A Grace so grand that sought me out
Pursued this heart so filled with doubt
My heart desired for lesser things
Like love of men or diamond rings
And though I did not seek your face
You reached to me to give me grace
How could it be you loved me so?
That on this heart of stone bestow
A love so great it drew me in
And pardoned me for all my sin
Forgiving all that I have done
Redeemed I stand by thy dear Son
That died the death that should be mine
So, in His Glory I might shine
As beacon of His love so pure
Tis Grace that holds my heart secure
Your Grace that drew my heart aside
And bid me in your love abide
And by thy Grace my heart doth vow
To give you all, before you bow
My life is yours-do as you will
What e’er it takes to this heart fill
With your dear love, to overflow
Unto the world that they may know
It was your Grace that loved me so
Your joy has set my life a glow
Your Grace does call to them to come
Drawn by your love to then succumb
Unto your will, accept your Son
And know the life that He hath won
