Author: L. H. B. Hymnal: The Old Story in Song Number Two #155 (1908) First Line: The Seer came back from paradise Refrain First Line: “My grace is sufficient for thee;” Lyrics: 1 The Seer came back from paradise
To earth with its sorrow and pain;
There floated to him from refulgent skies
The words of this glad refrain:
Refrain:
“My grace is sufficient for thee;”
“My grace is sufficient for thee;”
For my strength is made perfect in weakness;
“My grace is sufficient for thee.”
2 Alone in the hush of the silent night,
Alone with my prayer and pain,
Came singing to me, with the morning light,
The peace of this sweet refrain: [Refrain]
3 Like thorns in the crown that the Saviour wore,
Come our “thorns in the flesh” again;
He whispers to each that message of yore,
The joy of this same refrain: [Refrain] Tune Title: [The Seer came back from paradise]
My Grace is Sufficient for Thee
