We Shall Come Forth as Gold
Facing fierce fires, to burn dross
Trusting Jesus, we lay hold
Be surrendered, and stay faithful
We shall come forth as gold.
Struggling to Expect Miracles?
“Now the just shall live by faith
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”
So, seek much faith, do not lack.
In Every Trial and Storm
Be not discouraged, nor despair
As He prepares you, in Christ
Working all things for good
By grace in Him, fully sufficed.
Great Faith, God is Able
Fully trusting God’s promises
With obedience to His word
Being steadfastness in prayer
By circumstances, undeterred.
My Hiding Place and Shelter
You are my hiding place
And also my shield
I hope in Your Word
There Your love, revealed.
What Bugs You?
Yes, those bugs and frustrations
God allows, each our way
Are to get our attention
Cause us turn, and obey.
Trials- a Blessing or Curse?
For our Father, the vine-dresser
Is pruning, discarding
As branches, of His vine
For more fruit…keep abiding.
Tortured for Christ
So, despite such depravity
The height of men’s evil
You will comfort, and care
LORD God, Your own people.
The Underground Church
So, remember they’re family
Forget not, stay prayerful
Your brothers and sisters
In Christ… do be faithful.
The Blessings of Persecution
And there, no more pain
Soon glory, and splendor
God’s presence and peace
His kingdom, forever.
