Article 4

In my experience as a worship leader, I have had the opportunity to hear and perform many worship songs. There are some that bring great lyrical hooks and others that drive me with their beat. What I look for most in a song is hope and joy. To be able to sing back to God in faith and true worship is what I long to do every time I get up on the stage. The song I chose above the rest is Give Me Faith.

It was a while back when I first hear this song, but when I began to make worship set lists of my own, this tune eventually popped back into my head. It is a declaration that I have sung in my own life, and it is because of that reason I love it so much. With everything I have gone through in leading worship and having to fight those spiritual battles, this song takes me to that place where I can be at peace in the presence of God. In that time I pray like the songs says: to give me faith and trust what he says.

The bridge of the song is one of my most favorite lyrical hooks of all time. It explains how God is still strong in my times of weakness. His power goes beyond flesh and blood, and that is why he is the only solid foundation to put my trust upon. Give Me Faith brings a new sense of hope, love and perseverance each and every time I sing it. I pray it does the same to you.

"Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think." - Ephesians 3:20
