AND WHAT IS FAITH?
Faith gives substance to our
hopes
And makes us certain of
realities we do not see
And what is faith | And what is faith
By faith we see the universe was
fashioned by the Word of God
The Visible
Came forth from the
invisible
And what is Faith
Ordinary humanity tries to find truth
AND WHAT IS FAITH
By methods as unsuitable as attempting
to climb into the sky with a rope
