A Key to Suffering

For our focus is body
But God speaks to the soul
Our faith, His redemption
These make a man whole.

Temptation

And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.

Taught by Trials

Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.

Sounds Strange!

So, our God allows trials
That our faith be tenacious
Great faith, be made complete
To be perfected, need patience.

Count it All Joy

And so count it all joy
Tho’ He prunes, ’tis worthwhile
Bear more fruit, of God’s Spirit
Do give thanks, for each trial.

Always Joyful

Amidst seasons of peace
Or fierce persecution
Will God be your joy
Only hope, and solution?
