with faith

What would it be like

to have faith to move a mountain –

faith to walk on water –
such faith I've never known.

What would it be like

to ride a chariot of fire?

Or to see God's very finger

write upon a stone?

What would it be like

to sleep among the lions?

Or to build an ark while laughter floods my ears?

What would it be like

facing death to save my nation?

Or be betrayed by my own brothers

and not harbor it for years?

Faith the size of a seed

can do amazing things …
amazing things.

What would it be like

to defeat a mighty giant?

Or see the belly of a whale

and live to tell?

What would it be like –
stripped of every last possession –
to remain a true and faithful servant still?

Faith the size of a seed

can do amazing things …
amazing things.

What would it be like

to behold the Son and Father?

Or see visions of what was and what will be?

What will it be like

if I drink from heaven's fountain –

having faith to move a mountain ...

Faith the size of a seed

can do amazing things …

With faith the size of a seed –
what will He do through me?
