The Faith of the Christian

The faith of the Christian is simple and sweet,
Yet it's precious, more precious than gold.
It's faith in the Saviour that makes us complete,
And that opens the door to the Fold.

The faith of the Christian is steadfast and sure,
And it holds against tempest and shock.
It's sturdy foundation will ever endure,
For it's built upon Jesus, The Rock.

The faith of the Christian is humble and low:
It is happy in mansion or shack.
You'll find it abiding wherever you go,
For it dwells on both sides of the track.

The faith of the Christian is tested and proved;
Quite often it's tired till it hurts.
But, after the battle, it still is unmoved.
Oh it's wonderful, Friend, and it works!

The faith of the Christian is reckless, but right;
It will venture where brains fear to tread.
It overcomes easily mountain or height,
For it springs from the heart, not the head.

The faith of the Christian is hard to explain;
It's not smelled, tasted, felt, seen, or heard.
Enduring though ages, it so shall remain.
It's eternal. It's built on the Word!

FAITH

When you come to the edge of all the light that you know and you're about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things will happen:
There will be something solid to stand on, or you'll be taught to fly.
