Lyrics
Verse 1
By faith we see the hand of God In the light of creation’s grand design, In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness, Who walk by faith and not by sight.
Verse 2
By faith our fathers roamed the earth, With the pow’r of His promise in their hearts Of a holy city built by God’s own hand, A place where peace and justice reign. We will stand as children of the promise; We will fix our eyes on Him, our souls’ reward; Till the race is finished and the work is done, We’ll walk by faith and not
Verse 3
By faith the prophets saw a day When the longedfor Messiah would appear, With the pow’r to break the chains of sin and death And rise triumphant from the grave.
Verse 4
By faith the church was called to go In the pow’r of the Spirit to the lost, To deliver captives and to preach good news In every corner of the earth.
We will stand as children of the promise; We will fix our eyes on Him, our souls’ reward; Till the race is finished and the work is done, We’ll walk by faith and not by sight.
Verse 5
By faith this mountain shall be moved, And the pow’r of the gospel shall prevail; For we know in Christ all things are possible For all who call upon His name.
We will stand as children of the promise; We will fix our eyes on Him, our souls’ reward; Till the race is finished and the work is done, We’ll walk by faith and not by sight.
