Here are the lyrics to Your Grace is Enough by Chris Tomlin. We've sung it many times before in church but there was one line that really stood out to me today as we sangf it. "You use the weak to lead the strong." Wow. I am not sure exactly what Chris Tomlin meant as he penned those powerful words but they resonate with me right now. Over the course of my life, I have befriended a few people who, for one reason or another, would be considered "weak" in the eyes of the world. As I grow older, I am finding myself more and more drawn to these folks. And the reason is because of the things I learn from them ... the ways in which I am led by them. I learn compassion. I learn love for God above all things. I learn a desire for relationships and interaction with others. I learn "presence" in the midst of busyness. I learn a lack of "self". Again, I am not sure what Chris Tomlin meant exactly with these words ... and I by no means consider myself "strong" ... but I wanted to share what those viewed as the "weak" of this world bring to me.

Great is Your faithfulness, oh God
You wrestle with the sinner's heart
You lead us by still waters and to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is Your love and justice God
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of Your salvation
And all Your people sing along

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Your grace is enough
Heaven reaching down to us
Your grace is enough for me
God I see your grace is enough
I'm covered in your love
Your grace is enough for me
For me

You use the weak to lead the strong
