Chronicles of His Faithfulness
There are hard situations that will test our faith
and shake us down to the very core.
And we're faced with the challenge to keep walking ahead
though fear comes to knock at the door.
So we start living a story that we never dreamed
while hanging on to the King's right hand.
And it's there that we see God is really trustworthy
through the darkness we don't understand.
And it's there in the unknown...that His mercy is shown
toward us, when we take and receive.
Every bit of His character is written on our hearts
when by faith we just trust and believe.
It's there in our weakness and our human frailty
that we admit how much we need Him.
And His strength is infused...and graciously used
for each crisis before it begins.
It's there in the testing that God sends a blessing
of more faith...like we never knew.
For we take our lives one-day-at-a-time
while we wait for the things He will do.
And the season we felt we might not survive
becomes more priceless with each passing day.
For the chronicles of His faithfulness become our life story
when everything else falls away.
