Through The Night

I've seen the road and it's snares

I bore the load though it wears

I've heard your curses and taunts and still it won't stop me

I've heard your curses and slights and yet it won't stop me

Slept through the coldest of nights and still it won't stop me

From ever calling You "king"

Or hide the Gospel we bring

It's burning bright in my eyes

Come grow, come grow and light up the skies

We're hungry, tired, and sick

Faced with resistance on every end (in You we hide)

I've felt the scorn you inflict

Attack this mission I will defend

Still onward we will ride

We will ride

Onward we will ride

Forward with no end in sight

In You we shall hide

Our hope is found in the light

Tonight I rest, I rest in peace

Your will is greater than mine

And I haven't a thirst for wealth or man's empty praise

For the glory is Thine

And I haven't a want of fame in this world to claim at all

We will ride

We will face the world

We will ride

We will face the world

We're dirty, restless, and sore

But count it joy to be found worthy (against this test)

Endless assaults to endure

Upon our bodies with no worry

For one day I'll have rest

I've seen the road and it's snares

I bore the load though it wears

I've heard your curses and taunts and yet it won't stop me

And yet it won't stop me

Tonight I rest, I rest in peace

Your will is greater than mine

And I haven't a thirst for wealth or man's empty praise

For the glory is Thine

And I haven't a want of fame in this world to claim

When the vile take aim on my flesh I'll call Your name

I've seen the road and it won't stop me

With Your strength bestowed upon me freely

And Your grace has flowed in us completely

Now let us cut through the night so that in me they would see light
