59. A Stronger Faith

1 A stronger faith, dear Saviour,
A firmer, deeper love,
We need while on the journey
To reach our home above.

Refrain:
To us, O Lord, that faith impart,
On us that love bestow,
Till, borne away on wings, we rise
Where joys eternal flow,
Where joys eternal flow.

2 A stronger faith, dear Saviour,
More love to do Thy will;
And where Thy voice would lead us,
Thy steps to follow still. [Refrain]

3 A stronger faith, dear Saviour,
A perfect trust in Thee;
A faith in every trial
Our Father’s hand to see. [Refrain]

4 A faith that, firm and steadfast,
Beholds Thy constant light;
But sees Thy smile the clearest
Thro’ clouds of darkest night. [Refrain]
