God of Every Grace (Lyric/Chords Version) - Keith & Kristyn Getty, Matt Boswell, Matt Papa

A note to guitarists: the triangle-shaped fingering on the A chord and D chord is optional. If you omit that finger, you will get an A2 chord and a D2 chord, which we think sound better on this song. Enjoy!

LYRICS:
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

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

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

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

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

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
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

Lost my 5 month old grandson awaiting a heart transplant. This song ministered to me and still does as I process my grief. I’m singing at my church this Sunday. Thankful for a God of grace.

[kathysepesy]

Just heard this this morning for the first time, taking care of elderly parents with Covid, who are very sick. And God brought me incredible comfort and peace, and his joy, as I listen to these words this morning of your song. Thank you so much.❤

[gothjay]

I love this! The words uplift this old grandma’s heart! I need His Grace every day! May the Lord continue to bless you, Keith and your team as you bring these amazing hymns to all of us! May many come to Jesus through these songs that proclaim the promises in His Word! 🙌🎶❤️🙏

[Bienbendecida]

“For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!”
2Cor. 4:17 NLT🙌🏽 Look up, sisters and brothers-let’s keep our eyes fixed on Jesus!!

[gailseward]

I am always blessed by the way God uses you and your team. My heart is always lifted up when I sing or just play one of your songs

[lisawaites]

I'm a minister who is currently planning a "Blue Christmas" (also known as a "Longest Night") service for use during Advent, and this new Getty song will be PERFECT to incorporate into the liturgy and to teach the people to sing. Your lyrics have acknowledged the reality of human suffering, grief, and pain, while also keeping the listener oriented toward our faithful God, who sees us and supports us as beloved children, carrying us through every season of human life, death, and life beyond death, in Christ. It's a beautiful contemporary hymn, and I appreciate both the musical excellence and the theological depth that you have displayed (again!) as songwriters. Thank you from Canada.
