Faith the evidence of things not seen.

FAITH is the brightest evidence Of things beyond our sight; It pierces through the veil of sense, And dwells in heav'nly light,

It sets time past in present view, Brings distant prospects home, Of things a thousand years ago, Or thousand years to come.

By faith we know the world was made By God's almighty word; We know the heav'ns and earth shall fade And be again restor'd.

Abra'am obey'd the Lord's command, From his own country driv'n; By faith he sought a promis'd land, But found his rest in heav'n.

Thus through life's pilgrimage we may, Behold the promise nigh; By faith we walk the narrow way That leads to joy on high.
