Faith

(Dedicated to a friend)

Faith?
What is it?
Why is it important?

Without it youll give up on life
Without it youll live your life in depression
In strife

There's a song that say's
Nobody said it was easy
But nobody said it would be this hard

Thats how I feel
Why do people struggle
Why are people in pain?
I sometimes lack faith when it comes to this area

I talked to a friend last night
I wish I could make the pain go away
I wish I could make everything okay

He shouldn't have to work all week
To pay the bills for his family
He shouldnt have to be the butt of jokes
He shouldnt have to worry about it all

Nobody said it was easy
But I didnt think it would be this hard
Thats why you need faith
Faith will get you through
I hate to see friends hurt
I hate to see them sad

Often when I hear about whats happening to them and..
I want to cry for them
I get mad.
Why them?

My friend has some of the most remarkable faith i've seen
No matter what
No matter how hard
He always believes

He works hard
He pays bills
But I don't hear him complain
Each new day is just another problem thats slain

Hes always just has faith
its amazing really
I think of him and smile
No matter how hard
No matter how tough
He gets through it
He doesn't complain because its rough

He justs trusts
He has faith

The bible says "Faith is the substance of things hoped for
And the evidence of things not seen"
He has that kind of faith
And I admire him for it

I love him too
Because no matter how much he struggles

He always gets through
That is faith

Having hope
Trusting
Believing

through the good and bad
though times are sad
Just trusting in God to help you
Trusting in God to put you through
