Living by faith

(Verse 1)

When the night gets heavy and my fears get loud,

When the storm rolls in and my head’s bowed down,

I remember You’re the first one I can run to, Lord—

You whisper in the sunrise, “My love’s still yours.”

Show me where to walk, ‘cause I’m leanin’ on Your light,

I’m puttin’ all I’ve got in Your hands tonight.

(Bridge)

And I know when I call, You’re listenin’ close,

If it lines with Your will, You already know.

A shelter in the shadows, You watch while I sleep,

You hold every promise You ever speak.

(Chorus)

‘Cause I’m livin’ by faith, not the things I see,

You’re my rock, my refuge, where I plant my feet.

You won’t let me stumble, You don’t miss a thing,

You’re steady when the world hits like a wave in the wind.

Yeah, the world might shake, but I won’t lose hope—

You’re the helper at my side, never lettin’ me go.

And trust ain’t given, nah, it’s something we learn…

So I’ll sit real still, Lord, and listen in return.

(Verse 2)

I look at the sparrow sittin’ high in the trees,

He’s got everything he needs and he ain’t worryin’ like me.

If You feed the smallest feathered thing in the sky,

Then I know I’m on Your heart, I’m on Your mind.

You tell me let go of fear, don’t trust in man—

Your hands are safer than any I can stand.

(Bridge)

You’re the truth that protects, the hope that stays,

Teach me how to walk in Your honest ways.

Keep my lips from lies, keep my heart from greed,

You’re enough for me, yeah, You’re all I need.

(Chorus)

‘Cause I’m livin’ by faith, not the things I see,

You’re my rock, my refuge, where I plant my feet.

You won’t let me stumble, You don’t miss a thing,

You’re steady when the world hits like a wave in the wind.

Yeah, the world might shake, but I won’t lose hope—

You’re the helper at my side, never lettin’ me go.

And trust ain’t given, nah, it’s something we learn…

So I’ll sit real still, Lord, and listen in return.

(Bridge)

When my faith feels small as a mustard seed,

You still move mountains standin’ right over me.

You’re good in the trouble, near when I cry,

You’re the song in my chest and the strength in my fight.

(Final Chorus)

I’m livin’ by faith, not the things I see,

You’re my rock, my refuge, Lord, You carry me.

You’ve been good to my heart, You’ve been good to my soul,

And I’ll sing Your praise ‘cause You’ve made me whole.

Yeah, trust ain’t easy, but it’s worth the burn—

So I’ll walk this road with You…

And listen while I learn.
