A Minha Graça Te Basta

Imagine the apostle Paul telling a great experience
He had with God: Being caught up to paradise
I decided to tell this, singing

I was caught up to paradise, heard ineffable words there
That it is not lawful for a man to utter
(Paul said:)
So I could boast
But I boast because I am so weak
And everything I saw is from the Lord
And to avoid exalting myself, due to the excellence of the revelations
A thorn in my flesh I received
A messenger of the enemy came to buffet me
To avoid exalting myself

With my soul anguished, I decided to pray to God
That He would remove that thorn from my life
And three times I asked Him, and He answered me
My son, my grace is sufficient for you!

While victory does not come, there is grace!
While this fight does not end, there is grace!
While the day does not dawn, and the night does not pass
My grace will be with you to renew you

Receive my grace, walk with it
Someone will ask you
How do you continue singing amidst all this
Receive my grace, do my will
If there is a thorn in your flesh
There will always be grace for you to survive

There is grace when you pray, when you cry, when you groan
When you implore God's presence
There is grace when you sing, when you preach, when you teach
For in life you feel God's grace
There is grace in entering, in leaving, in acting
And even in your conduct
If the thorn remains in your flesh
Be thankful because there is grace for you to survive

Grace, grace, to me the grace of God Jesus is enough
Grace, grace, I found grace in Jesus
