Testing Your Resolve

He’s testing your resolve to do
The things He’s called you to;
If you’ll be faithful when it’s tough
The future’s not so rough.

The waves, You heard Him clearly say,
Will not sweep you away;
He is your anchor in the storm –
His promise He’ll perform.

The flames of trials will not devour,
He keeps you in His power;
You will come through refined and bright –
Pure in His holy sight.

Hold on then to your certain hope,
He’ll help you thrive, not cope;
Stand in His armor fully dressed
Until He brings you rest.
