This Is Faith
To walk where there is no path
To breathe where there is no air
To see where there is no light
This is Faith
To cry out in the silence
The silence of the night
And hearing no echo, believe
And believe again and again
This is Faith
To hold pebbles and see jewels
To raise sticks and see forests
To smile with weeping eyes
This is Faith
To say God I believe when others deny
I hear when there is no answer
I see though naught is seen
This is Faith
And the fierce love in the heart
The savage love that cries
Veil Thy face and mute Thy tongue
Yet I see and hear Thee love
Beat me down to the bare earth
Yet I rise and love Thee, love
This is Faith
