Go Down To Faith

 

I’m not the first to wonder if this is all there is

Or if this world is all there’ll ever be...

I’m not the first to cast myself on precious promises

That most people in this world never even see.

 

 

I wade in shallow waters and on myself rely

I hate these damned emotions and this  filthy flesh

The human heart has no desire that you can’t satisfy

Every hope is despair if on the cross it doesn’t rest

 

In every circumstance I let it all go down to faith

For everything not done in faith is sin

The one you put your faith in determines who you are

And faith is where the victory begins

 

I look to men of faith who’ve gone before

I see they didn’t focus on their fates

They found upon obeying what they knew to be true

They  let everything go down to faith.

 

In every circumstance I let it all go down to faith

For everything not done in faith is sin

The one you put your faith in determines who you are

And faith is where the victory begins
