"O Heart of Faith"!

I love this beautiful poem that I saw in a Sunday School paper by an unknown author. 
God's Word says that without faith it is impossible to please Him!  What a blessed privilege it is to anchor our faith in the Rock of Ages!


"O heart of faith, SING on and on forever!
     Although the way be sometimes dark and drear;
For God is with thee, and forsaketh never,
     And to the eye of faith doth He appear!

"O heart of faith, TRUST on and on forever!
     The Christ who called thee never, never fails;
Fear not to follow as He leads thee ever;
      Thro' all life's strange and weary, winding trails.

"O heart of faith, HOPE on and on forever!
      A better day is sure for thee to dawn ---
 A day, beyond life's dark and turbid river,
      Where earth's bleak shadows cannot ever come.

"O heart of faith, PRESS on and on forever!
      Forget the things that now lie far behind;
 The prize awaits, and Christ himself the Giver --
      A great reward thy soul shall surely find.

"O heart of faith, FIGHT on and on forever!
      While in the fiery conflict here below!
 Nor sheathe thy sword for any fear or favor;
      As ebbs the tide of battle to and fro.

"O heart of faith, LOOK UP! nor be discouraged;
       Thy God enthroned on high is looking down;
 He giveth grace for all life's stormy voyage
       And holds for thee the victor's golden crown!"

Praise the Lord for His blessed Word and the privilege to know that Faith is the Victory that overcomes the world!
Is your faith anchored in Jesus today?
