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

Faith should never come alone,
but be accompanied with action.
"Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Issac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did." --James 2:21-22
Such an action may have been deemed impossible or unbelievable by some,
but it really takes great faith and trust in the Lord,
that He knows what's best.
It is one thing to proclaim one's great faith in the Lord,
but real action should conclude it.
In the world we live in today,
there are many ways Christians could exhibit their faith,
as a church, or even outside church.
There are many people out there who need that extra bit of love or help,
if God loved as so much, we certainly should spread His love to the rest of the world.
Whether we could contribute by charity to the poor, orphans, elderly or disabled,
or educate and interact with locals foreigners who haven't heard of our God,
there are many ways we can do our best for others who may not be as fortunate.
Let's do what we can, and all we can,
and not let someone die without believing God,
just because they never knew.
While we live in our blessed lives,
let's not forget those who lack.
"As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead." --James 2:26
