Do Not Lose Heart

We are afflicted, In every way But not driven to despair Persecuted, but not abandoned Struck down but not destroyed Knowing that He who raised Christ from the dead Will raise us also And bring us all together Into the presence of the King Oh Lord we long for the day But this, light and momentary affliction Reveals a weight of glory we cannot comprehend And though this body is wasting away We do not lose heart For God, Who said let the light shine out of darkness Has Shone in our hearts To give light, Of the knowledge Of the glory of God In the face of Jesus Christ But we have, These treasures in jars of clay To show that, The surpassing power Belongs to God And not to us No, not to us But this, light and momentary affliction Reveals a weight of glory we cannot comprehend And though this body is wasting away We do not lose heart This, light and momentary affliction Reveals a weight of glory we cannot comprehend And though this body is wasting away We do not lose heart But this, light and momentary affliction Reveals a weight of glory we cannot comprehend And though this body is wasting away We do not lose heart
