Why have I found grace in thine eyes?

When I am from a past and a people despised

Why have I found grace in thy sight?

When I come from a line of bitterness and a sore plight

Having no name, no people spare my mother in law

Adopting a life, a God I have yet to know

You offer me a dwelling and part of a blessing that will forever flow

Let my people be your people and Thy God be thy God

Let death part thee and me for apart from You I am dust and sod

Devoted I will be to thee, in Your law and provision will I live

For out in this world apart from thee there is…
