Through His Strength

Thorns

(My Weakness–His Strength)
II Corinthians 12:9-10

His grace is sufficient, whatever the pathway,
His strength in thy weakness shall perfected be;
So great is His love it never can weary
Of meeting thy need and of caring for thee.

His grace is sufficient, thou’ ne’er canst exhaust it,
Be strong in that grace which floweth to thee,
Draw largely, continually, out from His fullness,
He still is sufficient, He careth for thee.

 

 

Thou’rt nothing but weakness, His arms are
around thee,
Not a thing canst thou do, but simply lie still,
And learn in the pathway of simple dependence,
A song of thanksgiving, since this is God’s will.

Then cling in thy weakness for He is beside thee,
Upholding, supporting, sustaining thee still;
And know that the Father is only just working
To mould thee and fashion thee unto His will,

Thy weakness He’ll use to display His own glory,
Resurrection strength then shall perfected be;
And thus thou shalt prove through the wilderness
journey,
His grace shall be always sufficient for thee.
