GENUINENESS OF FAITH
The need to have genuine faith is of importance;
False faith fails and we end up with impotence.
Many assume that their faith is indeed genuine;
Prudence teaches us to check and to be sanguine.
A genuine faith is not afraid of being tested;
Genuine faith is personal and is not inherited.
Every individual will be tested, sometimes through fire;
But true faith will triumph and this is what we may admire.
Silver and gold are purified by going through fiery heat;
They emerge more refined and purer through this feat.
Faith that has been tested thoroughly brings glory to God;
The genuineness of faith would be blessed by the Lord!
The soul does not need to cringe in fear when it is tested;
Genuine faith in the Lord would never see us bested!
Thank God for genuine faith that we may truly find;
The Lord would bless us with a glorious faith divine.
