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

When we go about with our lives,
we often focus on the wrong things,
and we forget what is most important in our lives.
When we or the people around us,
fall below our expectations,
we get frustrated with ourselves and displeased with others.
Philippians 1:12 says, "...that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel."
So, when we complain about the troubles we face in our life,
let's think of the possibility of the influence we can have on others,
that we can actually be a living testimony of God.
Sometimes, we may also feel that some Christians do not seem to be leading an entirely holy life,
but no matter the ways that they carry out evangelism,
"Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice." (Philippians 1:18)
Let's just remember that the most crucial thing, is that
"[we] will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death." (Philippians 1:20),
in other words, to glorify His name.
