Don't Faint in Faith - Poem

DON’T FAINT IN FAITH

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory” 2cor 4:17

O Christian, faint not, you are almost through

What God has spoken, shall He not make it good?

O saints, these troubles are only for a while

Think if you know what lies ahead you would smile

Even if you are the only one in a room of eight

And many other older converts have been caught by men’s sleight

Hear the voice of the One who holds His saints

Saying, “Groan in prayer as you must but NEVER FAINT”

For the joy before Him Christ endured the cross

Now you know he never suffered a loss

For this limited time manage to bear the pain

So for eternity you would reap an endless gain

Why Christ tarries is for us to double up our efforts

Let everyone leave the walls and forget comfort

Let’s go east, west, south, and north

As we tell the whole world OUR TIME IS SO SHORT!
