Walk By Faith

Straight outta the darkness and into the light Believing in my masters might I just stand still...for me He fights... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT My hard heart beats and bleeds for those bad beasts...beating like a drum for the last,the lost,and the least He's taken death's sting and given us life... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT From the serpents in the sand to the eagles in the sky For the lions in the jungle,full of prejudice and pride To the lambs on the road,taking Gods righteous ride... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT In ghetto garbage dumps where His faithful find gold mines Killer kings now showing kindness as they dream of the divine New doors open wide and some of the wicked come inside... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT From the pulpit to the pews From the many to the few The good,bad,and ugly...In Gods shadow they unite In the darkest devil day into that nightmare night... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT Walkin by faith and never by sight...trading the sad and the sadistic for the supernatural and sublime Swamps of sin and sewage turn into living water and holy wine From the cradle to the casket From conception until my last rites No fear or frustration No fright... WALK BY FAITH AND NOT BY SIGHT

now this is a battle cry. i loved the line about the serpent and the eagle. it tells me you have some bible knowledge and not just knowledge but a path to the truth/ as it was paved through old testiment pages. You'll find that i am a believer also. T. S.
