I Ask for Thy Grace

I ask for Thy grace,
    Thy all sufficient grace;
    Thy grace to help me -
    Strengthen me this day.

Come to me, Lord,
    I call Thee.
Come to me to stay.

I seek Thy holy face,
    Thy most majestic face;
    Thy holy face to lead me
    As I pray.

Come to me, Lord,
    I call Thee.
Come to me to stay.

I call Thy holy name,
    Thy most majestic name;
    Thy holy name above
    All other names.

Jesus, Jesus,
    I love You.
Jesus, come to stay.

I ask for Thy grace,
    Thy all sufficient grace;
    Thy grace to help me -
    Strengthen me this day.

Here is another short song I came up with as I was picking out a tune on my banjo.  In my weakness, I realize a need for God's grace to strengthen me for the day. This song is a prayer for grace - God's unmerited kindness to help us when we call upon Him.
