Song for a Sunday

Faith of Our Fathers



Faith of our fathers. living still,

In spite of dungeon, fire and sword;

Oh how our hearts beat high with joy,

Whenever we hear that glorious Word!



Refrain: Faith of our fathers, holy faith!

We will be true to thee till death.



Faith of our fathers, we will strive,

To win all nations, unto Thee;

And through the truth that comes from God,

We all shall then, be truly free.


Refrain


Faith of our fathers, we will love,

Both friend and foe in all our strife;

And preach Thee too, as love knows how

By kindly words and virtuous life.

Refrain


The words to this song were written by Frederick W. Faber.


How blessed we are to have had faithful men of God to stand up and to carry on the work and knowledge of the Lord throughout time. Passing on that torch to generations to come.

How blessed I am to have such an awesome husband, a man of God. What a wonderful gift he gives to his children! Is there anything better than to give your children the knowledge of our Lord and Savior? To have a husband who strives to do what is right in the eyes of the Lord. It is such a sweet joy, and I am truly blessed beyond measure.
