	                                   The Light of Faith*

                               Let our faith in the supreme Lord
                              Shine like a clear and dazzling light,
                                 Lead us to the path ever bright,
                               Trim away our wrath and our pride
                                 And goad us to the virtuous tide
                                   For us on His vessel to board.


* “We walk by faith, not by sight”
Bible, King James Version,
Corinthians 5.7

Thanks Perry for visiting and appreciating my poem and for your nice comments. I have more recently posted other poems on faith in the Lord, namely "The Flame of Faith", "Vision", "Why are We Here" and others which you may wish to visit and commend to your friends and those close to you. Have a delightful and inspiring weekend.
