A Stronger Faith

Fanny Crosby • English

Verse 1

I need, O Lord, a stronger faith, In this poor heart of mine, A faith to take Thee at Thy word, And all for Thee resign.

Chorus

Grant me, O Lord, a living faith That I may follow Thee, Thro’ joy or sorrow, doubt or fear, Until Thy face I see.

Verse 2

A faith that to Thy promise clings, When clouds above me roll, A faith that sweetly works by love And purifies the soul.

Chorus

Grant me, O Lord, a living faith That I may follow Thee, Thro’ joy or sorrow, doubt or fear, Until Thy face I see.

Verse 3

A faith that soars beyond the sky, And looks within the veil, A faith that, till my latest hour, Shall never, never fail.

Chorus

Grant me, O Lord, a living faith That I may follow Thee, Thro’ joy or sorrow, doubt or fear, Until Thy face I see.

Verse 4

A patient, firm, enduring faith, The christian race to run, A faith to teach me how to say, My Lord, Thy will be done.

Chorus

Grant me, O Lord, a living faith That I may follow Thee, Thro’ joy or sorrow, doubt or fear, Until Thy face I see.
