[Verse 1]
When everything around me's shaken
When trials tempt me to despair
And I feel like my own heart has hardened
Towards sorrow that's too great to bear
[Chorus 1]
When life has left me disillusioned
When hostility and hatred seem to win
Each headline that I read
Brings me to my knees again
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds
[Verse 2]
When couples suffer long in silence
Regretting that they dared to dream
When forgiveness is too hard to fathom
For a chasm that runs so deep
[Chorus 2]
In every lonely night of waiting
In every desperate cry and bated prayer
In the moment when my faith is failing
I find You there
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds
[Bridge]
Hold fast my heart, in trouble's wake
My faith is small, but my God is great
[Chorus 3]
And You said You would be near, the broken
And on my loneliest of days, I'm never alone
And I know You will bring peace
Surpassing what my mind can know
So steady now my weary soul
O love that never lets me go
When it feels like hope cannot be found
Grace abounds...
