There Always Is Enough This song is antiphonal, one verse poses a question and the next answers it. The song asks, “Do I believe that Christ will provide those things that will help me to keep the two most important commandments—love God above all things and love your neighbor as yourself?” Ordinary Grace Also antiphonal, the lyrics were inspired by “Ordinary Grace,” a book by Kathleen Brehony. The book tells of ordinary people doing extraordinary things for others. It's about having faith, reaching out to others, and finding God in them and in yourself. Comes a Stranger Based on two passages from the New Testament, the Nativity and the Road to Emaus, this song is a meditation on recognizing Christ in our lives and then choosing to open the door to salvation. © music and lyrics by David C.
