When darkness surrounds me
When every hope and dream
Lies broken in my hands
Your kindness reminds me
That there is one who understands
One who walked this lonely road before
One who gives me strength to say
Every hour in my deepest need
There is grace for me, there is grace for me
By Your power whenever I am weak
There is grace for me, there is grace enough for me
Stand by me, revive me
When I am weary with the sorrow and the loss
Release me, and teach me
To bring my burdens to the cross
Blood that cleanses every trace of sin
Love that mends the broken heart
Grace when the battle is long
Grace when temptation is strong
Grace when my courage is gone
And doubts confound me
Grace for the faith to believe
Grace for the heart to receive
Grace for the power to leave
The past behind me
Christ before me
All my hope in You
