Grace to Help Me

Author: E. E. Hewitt Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #71 (1916) First Line: When a contrite sinner to the Lord I came Refrain First Line: Grace to help me, O how rich and sweet! Lyrics: 1 When a contrite sinner to the Lord I came, Peace I found believing in His precious name; Now I'm ever proving when for strength I plead, There is always grace to help me in my time of need. Chorus: Grace to help me, O how rich and sweet! Grace to help me at the mercy-seat! When the name of Jesus at the throne I plead, There is always grace to help me in my time of need. 2 In the daily warfare that I wage with sin, He hath pow'r to give me victory within; In His mighty Spirit there is strength indeed; There is always grace to help me in my time of need. [Chorus] 3 In my lack of wisdom, as His work I do, Looking to my Savior brings me guidance tree; Richly will He bless me, as I sow the seed, There is always grace to help me in my time of need. [Chorus] 4 Sometimes roses sparkle with the dewdrops bright; Sometimes raindrops fall amid the chilly night; Thro' the shade and sunshine He will gently lead, There is always grace to help me in my time of need. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [When a contrite sinner to the Lord I came]
