Does anyone know anything about this person?

Does anyone know her personally or know anything about the life she lives or how she believes?

I heard her sing a hymn called, "He Giveth More Grace" and it was a very moving experience to listen to her sing the words to that song.

No one else has heard of this lady, heh?

The song is not "He's Always Been A Friend To Me", was it?

He giveth more grace when the trials are many.
He sendeth His peace with the storm.
In a world full of questions, He is the Answer.
He's been more than a Friend to me.

More than I ever asked for,
He's been more than He promised He'd be.
I've not always been the friend that HE needed.
But He's always been a Friend to me.

He giveth more grace when I have become weary
He sendeth His strength for the need.
And when I am afraid and when I feel helpless
I'm secure in the shelter of His arms.

It seems Bro. Murrell Ewing sang that. It's been one of my favorites for
years.

Sis Falla,

The lyrics you posted read beautifully, but it is not the same song. The song I am talking about is below. If you have the chance to look it up on youtube, do so. A guy named Larry Ford appears on one of the Gaither Homecoming recordings and he sings this song (I think.)

He Giveth More Grace
written by Annie J. Flint
performed by Angela Courte

He giveth more grace as our burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength as our labors increase;
To added afflictions He addeth His mercy,
To multiplied trials He multiplies peace.

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father’s full giving is only begun.

Fear not that thy need shall exceed His provision,
Our God ever yearns His resources to share;
Lean hard on the arm everlasting, availing;
The Father both thee and thy load will upbear.

His love has no limits, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men;
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He giveth, and giveth, and giveth again.
