Consider Abel, Enoch, and Noah. Father Abraham, Sarah, Issac, and Jacob Joseph in a foreign land. Moses and the children of Israel Rahab from Jericho David, Samuel, and the prophets; On and on we could go! Through history, a great cloud of witnesses Surrounds us on every side; While to Jesus we run, yes toward God's only Son: He who lives, and was crucified! Christ endured the shame of the cross For the joy God set before Him! Because He did not fear, we can press on, draw near, And endure by faith 'til the end! For without faith, we can never please Him, So let's endure by faith 'til the end! Amen. Words: Jerry Dan Deutschendorf Music: Jerry Dan Deutschendorf
