Eyes of Faith

There's something in the way, it's in my line of sight.
It seems to be so stubborn, it's putting up a fight.
But I'll rise to the challenge and prove that I'm strong.
It's going down, you'll see, not before too long.
Whatever comes my way, I'll rise to the challenge.
Living life for what is right, into righteousness I'll plunge.
Nothing can stand in my way, my future is so bright.
I'll do it in my strength, and do it in my might.
All the while, even though I don't realize,
I'm sinking deeper, and at night my soul cries.
It's the faintest of whispers, dancing across my mind,
That says, I've believed in a lie, and I'll soon find,
If I fight alone, it's a losing battle.
But I can't face that, it will ruin my man-made castle.
With just a little gust of wind and rain.,
Nothing good in my life will remain.
However, this too is a lie I have believed.
And as long as I do, the enemy is relieved.
For He knows if I fall, and cannot stand,
God will reach down and take my hand.
Strength will flow from His heart to mine.
It won't be about me, but about Him.
On this earth He came and trod.
The paths of death and sorrow.
He shed His blood for tomorrow.
For a brighter day, and a new way.
He conquered my sin.
Soo.... this something in the way,
My God did already pay,
The price it would take to redeem.
So that I would have the freedom to dream.
And see with the eyes of faith.
