Prevailing Faith

Seek refuge in God, broken, for he'll repair
         Repeatedly struggling to break free 
              With no smile from lady luck 
                      Surrender to hope,
                           Prevailing 
                             Faith;
                           Unfailing!
                     You learn to cope 
             Like flower stuck in the muck,
             Growing into a towering tree.
   Seek refuge in God, broken, for he'll repair.
