LORD, I BELIEVE
1. When sorrows and
storms are besetting my track,
And Satan is
whisp'ring, "You'd better go back,"
Oh, then I have
prov'd it tho' dark be, the way,
A little believing
drives clouds right away.
Refrain
Lord, I
believe! Lord, I believe!
Savior, raise my
faith in Thee till it can move a mountain.
Lord, I believe!
Lord, I believe!
All my doubts I'll
bury in the Fountain.
2. How easy when
sailing the sea at a calm
To trust in the
strength of Jehovah's great arm,
But somehow I find
when the waves swamp the boat,
It takes some
believing to keep things afloat.
3. "I'll stand
to the end,'' I have heard people say,
"I'll fight
till I die, and I'll ne'er run away;''
But when the temptations
so fiercely assailed,
They left off
believing, and terribly failed.
4. And others there
are full of courage and zeal,
Who go to the
battle like warriors of steel;
But right in the
heat of the conflict with sin,
Instead of
believing, they faint and give in.
5. Oh, let us
remember, in running our race,
That faith is not
feeling, and trust is not trace;
And when all is
seeming as black as the night,
We'll keep on
believing, and go on with the fight.
