Representative lyrics

English (Original Language)

Faith

Children’s Songbook (1989, 2021-digital), p. 96

1. Faith is knowing the sun will rise, lighting each new day.Faith is knowing the Lord will hear my prayers each time I pray.Faith is like a little seed:If planted, it will grow.Faith is a swelling within my heart.When I do right, I know.

2. Faith is knowing I lived with God before my mortal birth.Faith is knowing I can return when my life ends on earth.Faith is trust in God above;In Christ, who showed the way.Faith is strengthened; I feel it growWhenever I obey.
