Faith Is a Powerful Thing

F    ather in heaven and your beloved Son
A    ngels blessed to guard and pray for us

T    he power that you have, we pray
H    ealing all of Your children’s sins and diseases

I     nspired to thank you for our daily bread and

H   old Your hand with honor, to be encouraged
I    n the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit
N   ever ending 
G   ives our life meaning and hope
