LORD, INCREASE OUR FAITH

The lack of a deep faith may be felt keenly;

The unbelief, the fears, they hurt deeply!

The lack of power is painful and obvious;

How the heart longs for faith’s greatness!

 

The cry of the heart is for Faith to increase;

We desire that God’s power be released!

But the reality is that this is not the answer;

The Lord’s reply could not be clearer!

 

We must examine our Faith’s true state humbly;

The size of a mustard seed is small comparatively.

Yet, if it is applied with full belief in God’s power;

A miracle may be performed that very hour!

 

But we are often trapped by our human limitation;

We are weak when we come to Faith’s application!

Faith must be applied diligently for it to increase;

Only when Faith is applied would God be pleased!
