My heart is so proud
My mind is so unfocused
I see the things You do through as great things I have done.
And now You gently break me
And lovingly You take me
And hold me as my Father,
And mold me as my Maker
I ask you, "How many times will You pick me up
When I keep on letting You down?
And each time I will fall short of Your glory
How far will forgiveness abound?"
And You answer, "My child, I love you.
And as long as you're seeking My face.
You'll walk in the power
Of My daily sufficient Grace."
At times I may grow weak
And feel a bit discouraged.
Knowing that someone somewhere
Could do a better job
For who am I to serve You
I know I don't deserve You
But that's the part that burns in my heart
And keeps me hangin' on
I ask You, "How many times will You pick me up
When I keep on letting You down?
And each time I will fall short of Your glory
How far will forgiveness abound?"
And You answer, "My child, I love you
And as long as you're seeking My face
You'll walk in the power
Of my daily sufficient grace."
You are so patient with me, Lord.
As I walk with You I'm learning
What Your grace really means
The price that I could never pay
Was paid at Calvary
So instead of trying to repay You
I'm learning to simply obey You
By giving up my life to You
For all that You've given to me
I ask You, "How many times will You pick me up
When I keep on letting You down?
And each time I will fall short of Your glory
How far will forgiveness abound?"
And You answer, "My child, I love you
And as long as you're seeking My face
You'll walk in the power
Of my daily sufficient grace."
