HE GIVES MORE GRACE

 

In the weeks in between posting MY FINAL BLESSING, an exposition of Jacob's final blessing of his children in Genesis 49, I have been posting some of my poems. But this week I want to post a poem by Annie Johnson Flint. I have been struggling with my attitudes and frame of mind. This poem ministers to my soul, so I thought it would be good to share it with you.


He Giveth More Grace 


He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater

He sendeth more strength when the labors increase

To added affliction He addeth His mercy

To multiplied trials His multiplied peace

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure

His pow'r has no boundary known unto men

For out of His infinite riches in Jesus

He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again

When we have exhausted our store of endurance

When our strength has failed ere the day is half done

When we reach the end of our hoarded resources

Our Father's full giving is only begun

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure

His pow'r has no boundary known unto men

For out of His infinite riches in Jesus

He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure

His pow'r has no boundary known unto men

For out of His infinite riches in Jesus

He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again

For out of His infinite riches in Jesus

He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again


Long after Annie Johnson Flint had left the trials of her pain filled life Don Moen put this poem to music. You might enjoy the music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzhKGPireAA
