“Lord, hear my cry,
that this pain within me should flee...
I pray that you’d,
please allow for some reprieve.”
So I waited, with silence, and on bended knee...
Then He answered,
“My Grace is sufficient for thee.”

“Lord, hear my cry;
because my pain, I daily grieve...
I trust in You; with all my heart, I do believe.”
And then again, I wait, ever so patiently...
But, His reply:
“My Grace is sufficient for thee.”

“Lord, hear my cry.  
Wilt Thou harken unto my plea?
Three times I’ve prayed,
with great, expectant fervency.
Many gather, and in prayer, we now all agree...”
Yet, still His words...
”My Grace is sufficient for thee.”

“Lord, seek my heart.  
Art Thou enough for me to be?
Or, in my greed,
have I vainly, by You, been freed?
Thou knowest best;
even though I don’t clearly see...
Nevertheless, Thy Grace is sufficient for me.”
