In the Crucible – v3


In the crucible, in the fire, the furnace
walking through the challenges day to day
God is right beside us, our protector,
with us in the fires, in the storms,
in the struggles of life

God calls us to follow
because God loves us
God wants the best for us
God has prepared the way

Christ will show us, equip us,
on each step of this journey
the Spirit leads the way, forward,
as we follow the path before us
as we serve Christ out in the world
