God looks on our affliction by His graciousness
While He takes away our pride and haughtiness
As well as our grievous selfishness
By faith’s increasing submissiveness.
God looks on our affliction by His authority
While He checks our motive and priority
As well as our earnest sincerity
By faith’s magnifying truth-certainty.
God looks on our affliction by His light
While He conquers our cowardice and fright
As well as our failures’ blight
By faith’s cheering might to do what’s right.
God looks on our affliction by His ready aid
While He subdues our distress and pain of being dismayed
As well as our frustration to answers that are delayed
By faith’s growing trust to His love that does not fade.
God looks on our affliction by His counsel through His Word
While He smites our doubt and confusion-discord
As well as our unbelief due to fake news’ record
By faith’s clinging to the Spirit’s sword.
God looks on our affliction by His wisdom
While He corrects our vanity and boredom
As well as our slothfulness to work for His kingdom
By faith’s driving spirituality along divine freedom.
God looks on our affliction by His love constantly
While He teaches our heart and mind with His precepts daily
As well as our character for servanthood willingly
By faith’s cheering disposition victoriously.
