Fully Persuaded

Faith is a misty, winding way,
A path for pilgrims seeking light,
Who believe their doubts shall soon surrender to sight.

Hope is a ray beyond the gray,
A marvelous epiphany,
A vision exceeding these temp'ral things I see.

I am fully persuaded; I believe,
And I know that day by day I'll receive
The wondrous gifts the Spirit freely provides.
In the darkest of times I will not fear,
For His lovingkindness is always near.
I am at rest, for with me He abides.

Grace is a patient, faithful guide;
A loyal, benevolent friend
Who has reassured me true love will never end.

Joy is a bright, blue sky inside.
I soar, as I meditate upon
The promises of the omniscient Holy One.

I am fully persuaded; I believe,
And I know that day by day I'll receive
The wondrous gifts the Spirit freely provides.
In the darkest of times I will not fear,
For His lovingkindness is always near.
I am at rest, for with me He abides.

And then...there's...Love
Ageless, unfathomable.
Yes, I really believe in Love,
Infinitely bountiful!

And I know that day by day I'll receive
The wondrous gifts the Spirit freely provides.

For His lovingkindness is always near.
I am at rest, for with me He abides.

And I know I will dwell
In the house of the Lord forever...
And I know I will dwell
In the house of the Lord forever... [optional: repeat and fade]
