Verse 1:
Gathered here, within this place, we can share in God’s redeeming grace.
There’s no room for doubt or fear; we can feel His presence here.
As we face each passing day we will serve and honor and obey;
and if hope should start to dim, we will know our trust is in Him.
Chorus:
And we will keep our faith alive, God will always be our guide.
Through the darkest night, we will see God’s light.
We will keep our faith alive!
Verse 2:
We will live as God has planned, though at times we may not understand.
Many things we may not see, but our faith will help us believe.
From His Word we learn the truth; through His love we all are born anew.
With His help, we will not fail for we know our God will prevail.
Verse 3:
When we share the Love He gives, all the world will know that we are His.
In God’s name we stand as one; and through us, His work will be done!
And we will keep our faith alive, God will always be our guide.
Through the darkest night, we will see God’s light.
We will keep our faith alive!
We will stand as one until His work is done, we will keep our faith a – live!
Weeping Will Not Save Me
1. Weeping will not save you—
Though your face were bathed in tears—
That could not allay my fears—
Could not wash the sins of years!
Weeping will not save you.
Refrain:
Jesus wept and died for thee,
Jesus suffered on the tree;
Jesus waits to make thee free;
He alone can save thee.
2. Working will not save you—
Purest deeds that I can do—
Holiest thoughts and feelings too,
Cannot form my soul anew—
Working will not save you.
3. Waiting will not save you—
Helpless, guilty, lost you lie;
In your ear is mercy’s cry;
If you wait you’ll surely die:
Waiting will not save you.
4. Faith in Christ will save you—
Sinner, trust God’s risen Son;
Trust the work that He has done;
To His arms now quickly run:
Faith in Christ will save you.
We’ve a story to tell to the nations,
That shall turn their hearts to the right,
A story of truth and mercy,
A story of peace and light,
A story of peace and light.
Refrain:
For the darkness shall turn to dawning,
And the dawning to noonday bright;
And Christ’s great kingdom shall come on earth,
The kingdom of love and light.
We’ve a song to be sung to the nations,
That shall lift their hearts to the Lord,
A song that shall conquer evil
And shatter the spear and sword,
And shatter the spear and sword.
We’ve a message to give to the nations,
That the Lord who reigns up above
Has sent us His Son to save us
And show us that God is love,
And show us that God is love.
We’ve a Savior to show to the nations,
Who the path of sorrow has trod,
That all of the world’s great peoples
Might come to the truth of God,
Might come to the truth of God.
