Charles Burton Painting 1865
FAITH
Though dark and lonely is the path and I can't clearly see,
Though storms may rage in fury, and uncertain life may be;
Though all around seems hopeless and the future cold and bleak,
Though overwhelmed by fear and doubt, it's God's face I will seek.
It's trusting in a faithful God Who'll never let me go,
It's looking to a future that only God can know,
It's claiming every promise so that on God's Word I stand
It's knowing that I'm safely held within God's mighty hand.
