Endurance Through Faith
By faith we have found favor,
In God through our endeavor;
Which is pleasing to His eyes,
While blessing us to be wise.
And now through Jesus Christ,
Our Lord who was sacrificed;
We are able to live in peace,
With God giving a new lease.
Because of this blessedness,
God shows us His kindness;
On which we take our stand,
On solid rock not sinking sand.
So we are happy and content,
By faith knowing what is meant;
The glory of God that we share,
Awareness that He does care.
So we gladly suffer in our strife,
For it helps us to endure this life;
Giving us the hope for the next,
In Heaven where not perplexed.
