The Reflection of His Image

There are often many times,

God seems to not respond,

It seems He leaves us hanging there

And we feel our faith’s not strong

 

But His eyes are ever on us

When we are in the heat,

He will not let us be in there

More than He thinks we need

 

Though we feel we can’t endure

The fire any more,

It’s needful to burn away all sin

And the things not of the Lord

 

We all go through the testing fire

The Lord’s refining flame,

Though it’s painful to go through,

We’ll be forever changed

 

He brings us out of the fiery furnace

When He clearly sees in us,

The reflection of His perfect image

And the beauty of His love

 

So don’t give up in deep despair

Thinking God’s abandoned you,

Know that He is in control

And He will bring you through.
