A Manifestation of Faith – v2

Our deeds, our acts
our walk in this life
not to earn paradise
but a manifestation of faith

Like Abraham before us
bringing his son
prepared to sacrifice
at the calling of the Lord

What we do
how we walk in this life
something of our legacy
our testament of faith

Made Complete in Our Works

Our faith manifest
made to come alive
fulfilled in our hands, our actions
our path in this life

Our faith alive
made complete in our works
visible to all
all the people on earth

The Whole Law

Our lives measured
the walk of our days
by how we live
how we follow the law
the whole law
not just one command
how we relate to God
and to our fellow man

Judges with evil hearts – v2

Setting our neighbors
our brothers apart
gathering some in
casting others out
Discriminating among people
who we consider friends
judges with evil hearts
judgment in the end

Judgment without Mercy

As we judged
what we have done
judgment without mercy
when he have had none

As we reap
so shall we sow
seeds of destruction
by judgment within
rising to heaven
or descending in sin

When we face trials – v2

Not sadness but joy
not struggle but journey
hope in this life
when we face trials

A gift from our God
perseverance growing
layers of wisdom
maturity in faith

That we may serve
loving our neighbors
having walked in their shoes
trials in this life

We are to be joyful
happy in each moment
striving in this life
to fight the good fight

My heart on your laws

The words of your Spirit
The God-breathed holy text
The layers of meaning
Guiding me to my rest
God’s word revealing
Love for all men
Healing us by faith
By the blood of the lamb
Sacrifice, dying,
Rising from the grave
We too rising in God’s choosing
At the end of this mortal age
