Fight of Faith

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.

Rom 4:18 In hope against hope he believed, so that he might become a father of many nations according to that which had been spoken, "SO SHALL YOUR DESCENDANTS BE."
