Grasping Your Grace
By Susan Vaughan Shumake
*****
When there seems but a glimpse to hold onto
I close my eyes to make fear go away
and my heart lifts its’ cries up to you, Lord
grasping Your grace for today
I rest in the peace that surrounds me
when there is no peace to be found
Lost in the list of confusion
as yesterday’s news brought me down
Lord, You are my strength and my courage
My resting place when I am weak
You are the Rock that I stand on
the foundation of Love that I seek
Faithfulness comes to the faithful
when all we believe slips away
And Your arms are the wings that we fly on
when everything else goes astray
