from Whom all blessings flow;Praise Him,
all creatures here below;Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is
perfected in weakness.” Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more
about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may reside in me. So because of Christ, I am pleased in weaknesses, in insults, in
catastrophes, in persecutions, and in pressures. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 (HCSB)
Wonderful grace of Jesus,Greater than all my sin;
How shall my tongue describe it,Where shall its praise begin?
Taking away my burden,Setting my spirit free;
For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”
Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus,Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;
Wonderful grace, all sufficient for me, for even me.
Broader than the scope of my transgressions,Greater far than all my sin and shame,O magnify the precious Name of Jesus.
Praise His Name!
“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”
Wonderful grace of Jesus,Reaching to all the lost,
By it I have been pardoned,Saved to the uttermost,
Chains have been torn asunder,Giving me liberty;
For the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”
Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus,Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;
Wonderful grace, all sufficient for me, for even me.
Broader than the scope of my transgressions,Greater far than all my sin and shame,O magnify the precious Name of Jesus.
Praise His Name!
“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”
Wonderful grace of Jesus,Reaching the most defiled,By its transforming power,
Making him God’s dear child,Purchasing peace and heaven,
For all eternity;And the wonderful grace of Jesus reaches me.
“Wonderful Grace of Jesus”
Wonderful the matchless grace of Jesus,Deeper than the mighty rolling sea;
Wonderful grace, all sufficient for me, for even me.
Broader than the scope of my transgressions,Greater far than all my sin and shame,O magnify the precious Name of Jesus.
Praise His Name!

During the night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two female slaves, and his 11 sons, and crossed the ford of Jabbok. He took them and brought them across the stream, along with all his possessions. Jacob was left
alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. When the man saw that He could not defeat him, He
struck Jacob’s hip as they wrestled and dislocated his hip
socket. Then He said to Jacob, “Let Me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob
said, “I will not let You go unless You bless me.” “What is your name?” the
man asked. “Jacob!” he replied. “Your name will no longer be Jacob,” He said. “It will be Israel because you
have struggled with God and with men and have prevailed.” Then Jacob
asked Him, “Please tell me Your name.” But He answered,
“Why do you ask My name?” And He blessed him there. Jacob then named the
place Peniel, “For,” [he said,] “I have seen God face to face, and I have been delivered.” The sun shone on him as he passed by Penuel—limping on his hip. That is why, to this day, the Israelites
don’t eat the thigh muscle that is at the hip socket: because He struck Jacob’s hip
socket at the thigh muscle. Genesis 32:22-32 (HCSB)
