THE WAY HE CAME

Dm C
JUST TO THINK SUCH ROYALTY WOULD COME THE WAY HE CAME
Bb A
IN A DUSTY LITTLE TOWN,
Dm C
BORN IN SUCH HUMILITY, U PON A BED OF HAY;
Bb C
WILLINGLY HE LAY HIS GLORY DOWN.

Dm C
WHO WOULD THINK THIS LITTLE CHILD WOULD BE THE PROMISED ONE?
Bb A
WOULD MESSIAH REALLY COME THIS WAY?
Dm C
CERTAINLY THIS WAS NO BIRTHPLACE FOR THE SON OF GOD.

ISN'T IT AMAZING HOW HE CAME?

in my weakness He is strong

When living life for Jesus Christ becomes too hard a task,

When obedience means sacrifi ce that seems too much to ask;

That's when I learn that my own strength isn't really strength at all,

And I fi nd rest in humbleness when I surrender all.

In my weakness He is strong;

In my need He leads me on.

When I come to the end of all I am,

And I place my trust in Him;

That's when His strength begins In my weakness.

When failures in my human strength have weakened all my pride,

And ruined hopes in fallen dreams have crumbled me inside;

It's then by grace I fi n'lly see the strength of Jesus Christ,

His victory is real in me when weakness fi lls my life.

In my weakness He is strong;

In my need He leads me on.

When I come to the end of all I am,

And I place my trust in Him;

That's when His strength begins In my weakness.

A Very Special Grace

Verse 1
When my life is tested by a bitter trial,
When the tempter tries to tempt me in my way,
Or when darkness dreary falls upon my journey,
Then Jesus gives a very special grace.

Chorus
A very special grace in the time of my trouble
A very special grace just to see me through,
A very special grace that will heal all my heartaches,
And Jesus wants to give this very special grace to you.

Verse 2
Oh, I know that I am never, never worthy,
For my sins demand that I be punished too.
But I've heard how Jesus took my place on Calv'ry,
And that His very special grace will see me through.
