Faith in Christ
Praise the Father of our Lord,
To who is beloved and adored;
His mercy gives us a new birth,
Through Jesus Christ here on the earth.
Though we are in the midst of strife,
We have been born in a new life;
With confidence that is alive,
Through Jesus Christ will make you strive.
This new life has an inheritance,
With a wealth of an abundance;
It cannot ever be destroyed,
Cannot fade away or devoid.
That inheritance is given,
Onto you when you reach Heaven;
And now guarded by the power,
Of the arm of God each hour.
For you have built your foundation,
Through your faith for a salvation;
The at present has been still sealed,
But is ready to be revealed.
You should be glad about these things,
All that your eternity brings;
Even though that you suffer now,
Through Jesus you will be shown how.
The aim of trials is a test,
To see your faith can do its best;
Passing a test is giving praise,
To God these everlasting days.
