Women of Grace

Written by Lynn Cooper
Links to contributors: Lynn Cooper

I have participated in many women's conferences. Some I've been the worship leader, some the keynote, and some I'm doing many behind the scenes things. But, through them all no matter the capacity I fill, I am moved deeply by the faith of women. There is something about the Spirit of women that is open, uninhibited, powerful, graceful, strong and gentle. I'm sure I could go on. Women are not afraid to show emotion while worshiping the Lord. This song I wrote in response to these women and for these women. Simple as that! - Lynn, June 10, 2003

Lynn sent me a copy of her new CD, "To You Alone". Its really good. This song will be especially popular with women... the rest of us can hum along. :-) Rhesa and I created the midi. - Elton, June 10, 2003


Lyrics

(Introduction)

We are women of grace
'Round the throne of the Lord most high
And we lift up our praise
From the depths of our souls hear our cry

Oh Lamb of God
It is our one desire
To seek Your Holy Face
To be women of grace

We are women of grace
'Round the throne of the Lord most high
And we lift up our praise
From the depths of our souls hear our cry

Oh Lamb of God
It is our one desire
To seek Your Holy Face
To be women of grace

We'll shout with joy from the mountain top
As we enter Your courts with praise
All that we do Lord
We offer to You Lord
Oh, hear us as we pray

We are women of grace
'Round the throne of the Lord most high
And we lift up our praise
From the depths of our souls hear our cry

Oh Lamb of God
It is our one desire
To seek Your Holy Face
To be women of grace

We'll shout with joy from the mountain top
As we enter Your courts with praise
All that we do Lord
We offer to You Lord
Oh, hear us as we pray

We are women of grace
'Round the throne of the Lord most high
And we lift up our praise
From the depths of our souls hear our cry

Oh Lamb of God
It is our one desire
To seek Your Holy Face

(Modulate)
We are women of grace
'Round the throne of the Lord most high
And we lift up our praise
From the depths of our souls hear our cry

Oh Lamb of God
It is our one desire
To seek Your Holy Face
To be women of grace
Women of grace

It fills me hope and joy every time I hear it. It should be included in hymnals . Thank you Lynn Cooper for your creativity. Thank you Johnnette Williams for popularizing it.
