                                            Faith in the Lord
 
                                 Let my faith ever glitter Lord *
                            And shine like a clear dazzling light;
                                Not to serve You I can`t afford:
                           O Supreme Lord, shore up my flight.

                            I bow humbly before Your shrine,
                               Let my faith ever glitter Lord
                           And cross the boundaries of time;
                          All that I yearn for are Your Words.

                         Let me reach Your heavenly board,
                              O Lord to You this is my plea:
                             Let my faith ever glitter Lord,
                                All I wish is a humble lee.               

                          Your Supreme grace, Lord I adorn,
                             Divine hymns I wish to record;
                           Like rays of the sun in the morn
                             Let my faith ever glitter Lord.
