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

Why is it always so difficult to keep on the righteous path?
When we need God in our lives,
we do everything and anything to get in the favour of God,
so we can get what we desire and pray for.
But once our trials pass,
we gradually forget His importance in our lives,
and lose focus of our purpose and role in life.
Maybe we are all born to come out differently,
having different characters, influences and talents.
But somehow, we have to find our way through all this,
and effectively use what God has given us,
to live a holy life and fulfill the purpose He has for us.
When we possess more of a certain gift,
surely we lack in other areas.
But we can't possibly use our weaknesses as an excuse
to avoid doing certain things God wants us to do.
Perhaps we must learn from such challenges,
to emerge stronger than before.
It will definitely be tough, but life was never easy in the first place anyway,
but let's just be assured that God will always be there for us.
It isn't easy to grow in righteousness, or shine for God,
we need to really put in effort and overcome our own obstacles.
Pray, too.
