Grace Place

To win, I must cooperate with grace,
to sin, I must give in to sin's allure;
just as I must run hard to win the race,
I tend to sin when I do not endure.
God gives me more His grace the more I try,
with faith and gracefulness in all I do,
and when I fall, I need to resupply
His grace from every Godly rendezvous.
Grace comes each time I meet with Him in prayer,
and going to church, I never draw a blank;
instead of greed, grace makes me want to share,
and when I love, I take it to the bank.
I find grace in God's own community,
and I am graced by love God's placed in me.
