Lord, increase my faith
Each and every day
For one can please you only
By believing all You say
Cast out every doubt
To all darkness bring light
Let my focus be not on the seen
But on all that is beyond sight
May my eyes see always Heaven
My heart be set on treasures above
Believing and obeying Your Word
Yes, this is how I express my love
Faith is being sure what we hope for
And certain of what we do not see
Through faith we can move mountains
With it righteous in Your eyes we can be
For to all who receive Jesus Christ
To all who believe in His Holy Name
You give the right to be Your children
Your Family and ours, one and the same
Glorious, miraculous, precious is faith
It brings life eternal, blissful and true
Faith draws our hearts ever closer
To knowing and experiencing You
How can we gain this precious faith
Of which its worth is far more than gold?
By listening to Your Word, O LORD,
Established from the days of old
I will immerse myself in Your Word
Let Your Truth fill my heart and ears
For blessed is the one who understands
And practices the Word she hears
Praise You, LORD, my God and Father
I praise You for Your wondrous ways
You determined how to save Your children
Through faith You save from darkest days
Inspiring it is to know You, Almighty One
Blissful it is to unite my heart with Yours
May I share Your message of love and faith
To those of distant lands and shores
And may my faith be pleasing to You
May it prove to be full, pure and complete
For to know You, love You and serve You
Nothing on earth could be more sweet
