How Faith Grows Stronger
God starts us out on little ponds
Where daily winds seem strong;
We learn to trust in shallow pools
But never stay there long.
We’re soon afloat the lakes of life
Where thunderstorms seem big;
We gain more faith when tossed about
By winds that shake our rig.
Then on to oceans deep and wide
He guides our little barque;
As tempest blow and billows roll
We trust Him in the dark.
As faith grows stronger, tests grow too
To make us like our Lord;
He gives more peace and joy with each
And multiplied reward.
