Faith
We struggle to keep up the pace, Sometimes we wonder why.
Fear says we'll never win the race, but faith tells us to try.
There's no one there to comfort us, We're lost and all alone.
Fear drives us far away from God, but faith brings us back home.
We need to place our trust in Him, Although we cannot see.
Our fears can bind us evermore, but faith will set us free.
To walk in faith or run in fear . .. It's up to us to choose:
To walk in faith will win the race, To run in fear will lose.
"For we walk In; jaith, not by sight."- II Cor. 5:7
