This fight of faith, I want to win right here
Though surrounding me are these waves of anxiety and fear
There be no point of brandishing my faith sword
When the awaited moment has been brought to pass by the Lord
Yes, things are wisps of smoke against glass
And I know not when that moment would come to pass
But He who maketh me right now stand
Is the one who holds tomorrow and holds my hand
So even though things may seem not to be
Jesus calls into existence the very unseen verily
Lord help me trust, with a faith that will please
Let me win this battle whilst I am still down on my knees
For you are unchanging and so full of love
Your greatness stretches further than the highest skies above
O! for a trusting heart, I would, my Lord, plead
As, for the righteousness received by faith, over the horizon I see
So like Abraham it may be said of me,
“In hope against hope he”, in Christ Jesus, “believed”
For the time to trust and believe in you Lord, is now
Trusting in your providence and love, Lord I bow.
Written at a time of uncertainty and a gloves-coming-off kind of fight with doubt. How can I forget the one who provides for me in torrents of love? Jesus, you deserve much much more than doubt and mistrust. Forgive me and build me up. May Jesus Christ be praised. Amen.
