Verse 1
O let not this world of sorrows
Steal my only hope away
For the power of Your gospel
Shines within this jar of clay
In affliction You bring wisdom
That my comforts can displace
How my true and greatest treasure
Is in You the God of grace
Chorus
Now to the God of every grace
Who counts my tears who holds my days
I sing through sorrows sing with faith
O praise the God of every grace
Verse 2
Weary with the weight I carry
Give me wings of faith to rise
For You know each grief that lingers
Through the watches of the night
Surely You have borne our sufferings
At the cross took up our pain
And You lead us on to glory
As we trust You God of grace
Verse 3
There's a dawning hope before us
That I know is soon to break
As I wait upon Your mercy
Which will swallow every ache
Cries of joy and songs of victory
When we enter heaven's gates
All Your children home together
All with You the God of grace
Ending
Now to the God of every grace
Who counts my tears who holds my days
I sing through sorrows sing with faith
O praise the God of every grace
O praise the God of every grace
O praise the God of every grace
