Faith is Trusting God

Faith is trusting God, believing that He loves us,
    And knows best what is for our good.

Thus instead of our own, it leads us to choose His way;
In place of our ignorance, it accepts His wisdom;
In place of our weakness, His strength;
In place of our sinfulness, His righteousness.

Our lives, ourselves, are already His;
    Faith acknowledges His ownership and accepts its blessing.

Truth, uprightness, purity,
    Have been pointed out as secrets of life’s success.

It is faith, it is faith, it is faith that
    puts us in possession of these principles.
It is faith, it is faith, it is faith that
    puts us in possession of these principles.

You may search the Internet for the “secrets of life’s success,” but you will rarely, if ever, find “truth, uprightness, and purity” in the list! Yet in God’s sight, these are the keys to success.

These keys to success come to us via the Bible, not just as theories, but as living principles, like seeds which have the law of life in them. It is faith that opens the door to receiving these blessings from God.

And that is the message of this song!
