Grace Will Be Dancing



Grace Will Be Dancing
By Curtis Johnson

2 Corinthians 9: 12 NIV

Far from the peaceful and prosperous shores of America.
A blessed e-mail came one day from a lady in Africa.
I always rejoice in my spirit and cry in my heart.
When Grace is so thankful for our little part.

Because of a gift, she has been greatly relieved.
She’s happy now that she can pay some school fees.
She will buy sugar for grandma and something for herself.

She said that a friend name Gerald went to a village to start a church
She will share the gift with him, because she fills bless with much.
She said that she has a favorite song to which she will be dancing.
Grace said that because she cannot sing, she will dance.

Her friends also know her song, but perhaps they do not
Know the total reason that she is dancing.
No doubt they will here the same outward music;
But I am certain, Grace hears a difference beat, deep
Within her heart, and that’s the sound to which she is dancing.
At her friend’s wedding, Grace will be dancing.
At her church, while others are singing her favorite song,
So happy, so grateful, Grace will, so gracefully, be dancing.
