Lighthouse Ministries Daily Prayer
The hymn Faith of Our Fathers inspires me to trust You, my Father in Heaven...
1. Faith of our fathers, living still,
In spite of dungeon, fire, and sword;
Oh, how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious Word!
Faith of our fathers, holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death.
2. Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
How sweet would be their children’s fate,
If they, like them, could die for thee!
3. Faith of our fathers, we will strive
To win all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God,
We all shall then be truly free.
4. Faith of our fathers, we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife;
And preach thee, too, as love knows how
By kindly words and virtuous life.
I want to thank you for the faith of many Christian fathers and mothers who passed along to me their wisdom and inspiring faith.
I want to thank You for the faith of those who influenced me so that I might have faith in You.
Thank You for Your Holy Bible that sheds light and provides hope for me.
Please strengthen me and grant me courage and wisdom to live such a life and to take such actions that I may influence other people’s lives with your great love and mercy.
That they may know that you are God, the Almighty who created us and loves us forever.
That they may come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.
Please reign in my life now and forevermore.
In Jesus’ powerful name I pray,
