Faith by Which We Live
by Tom Rasely
(written for the 9/6/09 worship service.)
Chorus
What we do is only made possible
through the Faith by which we live.
What we say is given substance
through the Faith by which we give.
The actions of our daily lives
are the actions of that Faith;
It’s a living, breathing acting out
of God’s amazing grace.
1) You wish another well, saying
"Go, be warm and well fed,"
And you never stop to think at all
It could be you instead.
When we see the world is a cold, cold place,
And there’s hunger in the land, remember that
Faith would never walk away
without Offering its hand.
Chorus
2) Someone will say, "You have faith,
And I have deeds instead."
Well, show me a faith without any deeds,
And that faith will prove to be dead.
Our faith in God is never without
Responsibility;
And our sacrifice is measured
by our accountability.
And…
