I Do Not Lose Heart

I look to the things I cannot see

I will walk by faith and not sight

Fixing my gaze on the invisible truth

I will continue to fight the good fight

So I do not lose heart, I do not lose heart

I renew my inner man as I learn to see

I’ll look beyond my senses, perfecting the art

Of apprehending the most precious realities.

God said ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’

He has shone in our hearts to give the light

Of the knowledge of the glory of God

In the face of or Lord Jesus Christ”

So go on seeking with new eyes

Seeing with the eyes of the heart

The truth that sets you free will make you wise

Though your senses fail it will never depart.

Bridge:

I am being renewed day by day.

Though the things that are seen are passing away,

For our affliction in time for us will prepare

An eternal weight of glory beyond all compare

The things that are eternal are also unseen

Neverending, persisting,and evergreen

Eyes of this kind will set us apart

The unseen light will strengthen the heart

I look to the things I cannot see

I will walk by faith and not sight

Fixing my gaze on the invisible truth

I will continue to fight the good fight
