Faith


So strong, It can move a mountain
Yet it's lighter than the air
It's the fruit of the spirit
Longsuffering and full of care

For by grace are ye saved though it.
And without, it you are lost.
The trying of it worketh patients;
Sometimes, how great the cost.

With it, Peter walked on water.
And Moses parted the sea.
If you had it as a mustard seed,
What faith would do for you and me?

Faith caused the Barron to conceive

And made the blind to see.
Faith raised a man from the dead.
And calmed an angry sea.

Without it, we are fearful.
Our lives are filled with doubt.

With it our sins are forgiven
And peace will reign throughout.

Jesus stretches forth his hand 
And whispers, "wherefore didst thou doubt? 
I promised, if you would only have faith,
God's miracles you'd never be without."
