Refiner's Fire
Yeah
Sometimes I ask,
"God, why me?"
Why does every road feel harder
than it should be?
But maybe You ain't trying to break me
Maybe You're building something in me
So test my faith
I prayed for peace,
but You gave me a battle
Asked for strength, now I'm carrying the weight
I wanted answers, You gave me a lesson Wanted the shortcut,
You told me to wait I've been standing in the storm with
the rain coming down Trying not to lose my faith when there's
no way out Everybody says,
"God, where are You now?" But I know You're in the fire
even when I can't see how
Every trial got a purpose
Every tear got a reason
Every mountain that I'm facing
Could be growing my believing
I don't wanna only praise You When the blessings fill my hands
I wanna trust You in the valley Even when I don't understand
So if my faith needs testing
Lord, let the testing come If the fire makes me stronger Then
don't let me run (ooh yeah,
don't let me run)
Test my faith
When the pressure comes,
I won't walk away When the storm gets loud And the fear
starts shouting I'll remember who You are Test my faith
Even when I can't see the road ahead I will trust Your
name I will stand on Your Word
I know You won't leave me there
Test my faith Test my faith
If I walk through the fire I'll come out
with a stronger faith
I used to think that faith meant no problems
Like following God meant the pain would disappear
But now I know that faith is believing That He's still God
when the answer isn't clear
Daniel had a lion's den David had a giant
Job lost everything
Still refused to deny Him
Three men standing in the furnace Didn't know if they'd survive it
But they trusted
God completely
Even if He didn't rescue them
That's the kind of faith I want
Not a faith that breaks under pressure
Not a faith that only lives When my life is getting better
I want
faith like a foundation When the earthquake starts to shake I want
roots that go down deeper
Every time my heart gets tested (oh,
test
my faith)
