Face to Faith

David was small
But no giant could take him
And Daniel was doomed
But there was not a wound
When they raised him from the lions' den
Simon Peter, in chains
Brought an angel to the rescue
Paul and Silas, in jail
Were guarded to no avail
But their shackles were loosed
And the doors just flew open

Now what is the catch?
I asked, one day I was readin'
It must be an age-old mystery
But taking a second look
I discovered a strikingly clear consistency

It's meetin' disaster face to faith
Puttin' God's promises into place
Tendin' to trouble with a little taste
Of what God will do when his people
Start callin' his name
He anxiously awaits
To give the word to release the power
That prayer creates
So we gotta learn to meet every problem
That we face
Face to faith

Now, now, now, now, people, I've learned
That God's word can be tested
Just trust him, you'll see
For those who believe
He's still a God of mighty miracles
So when troubles hit hard
Turn to God and be patient
Just stand strong, don't run
For there isn't anyone
That he's ever let down
When their lives have been faithful
It's easy to go halfway
And not really do it
But that makes the consequences rough
The more the catastrophe
The sooner you see
That you're so much better off

By meetin' disaster face to faith
Puttin' God's promises into place
Tendin' to trouble with a little taste
Of what God will do when his people
Start callin' his name
He anxiously awaits
To give the word to release the power
That prayer creates
So we gotta learn to meet every problem
That we face
Face to faith

(He will deliver us, if we will only learn to trust)

We gotta start meetin' disaster face to faith
Puttin' God's promises into place
Tendin' to trouble with a little taste
Of what God will do when his people
Start callin' his name
He anxiously awaits
To give the word to release the power
That prayer creates
So we gotta learn to meet every problem
That we face
Face to faith

Meetin' disaster face to faith
We gotta start meetin' disaster face to faith
Meetin' disaster face to faith
We gotta start meetin' disaster face to faith
Face to faith, yeah!
