Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Even as Christians,
each of us encounter our problems that drive us to the brink of insanity.
But when God gave them to us, He wanted us to grow from them,
and not simply accept them as failures in life.
You may question why we aren't different from non-believers in this sense?
Why do some of the strongest Christians face the biggest challenges in life?
If anything, it is to build up their faith,
and for them to be a testimony for God, so others can learn from it.
"In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted" -- 2 Timothy 3:12
Many times, we really cannot understand why God does certain things,
we really shouldn't complain or try to get our way,
but accept that He has greater plans that we may not see yet.
Everything that happens, let's just leave them to God,
because our task is to glorify God, no matter what.
