Lyrics

Verse 1
God, pour out Your grace upon me
When my troubled thoughts arise,
When the shadows of tomorrow
Bring forth tears that flood my eyes.

Chorus 1
I will trust in Christ, my Savior;
I will stand upon Your word.
I won’t fear; my God is for me.
Glory be unto the Lord!

Verse 2
Christ, pour out Your grace upon me
When temptation draws me in;
By Your death and resurrection,
Grant me life that’s cleansed from sin.

Verse 3
Spirit, pour Your grace upon me;
Guide me through the storms of life.
Keep my weary feet from stumbling;
Lead me into glorious light.

Chorus 2
Glory be to God the Father;
Glory be to Christ the Son;
Glory to the Holy Spirit;
Praise belongs to You, my Lord!

Tag
I will trust in You, my God!
Glory be to You, my God!

Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
