WALK THE TIGHTROPE
In facing challenges along life’s race
Midst struggles marked by weakness angst…
I walk the tightrope with faith in God*
So I can stand on the winning side
Thanking Him with worshipful bliss!
In battling against many facets of unrighteousness
Midst enticement of materialism offering wealth…
I walk the tightrope, trusting divine mercy
So I can do good works in His will
Toiling for the Saviour along diligence!
In conquering several stages of difficulties
Midst suffering brought by atrocities’ pain…
I walk the tightrope, supplicating to the Lord
So I can claim His unfailing assured help
Testifying about His blessed compassion!
In fleeing from different angles of temptations
Midst trials that target vital motives…
I walk the tightrope, gripped by the Almighty
So I can follow His precepts toward heavenly flight
Triumphing against adversaries’ attacks!
Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
