Faith Knows No Defeat
Though storms may roar and shadows creep,
Faith guards the promises it keeps;
When weary hearts are bowed by night,
It lifts their gaze toward morning light.
The mountain stands in silent pride,
Yet faith sees pathways at its side;
Where others find a wall of stone,
Faith hears a door not yet made known.
A seed beneath the earth may lie,
Yet dreams of forests reaching high;
It trusts the spring through winter's reign,
And finds its bloom through wind and rain.
The river bends but does not break,
Its course no obstacle can take;
Through patient years it shapes the land,
By strength unseen and steady hand.
For faith transcends the loss of time,
And turns despair to hope sublime;
It knows no defeat, no final end,
For eternity remains its friend.
