An attribute that I covert, desire to see expressed
Is faithfulness in my life even when I’m pressed
I want a gracious spirit to put the trouble to one side
Then we’ll see the loveliness of faithfulness in a life that’s been applied
When trials come and friends don’t cope, or say things they should shame
There should be faithfulness to see it through even though it cause me pain
It’s the faith to know that things work out, that they were worth it form the start
That we’re in it for the long term, this is from God’s heart.
For loyalty earns love as they see that grace extended
And they realize this friendship is not one that can be ended
How grace will always cover, a multitude of failing
And see’s you through the trial when a friendship’s not smooth sailing
It’s faithfulness to God’s Word, that holds on through thick and thin
And when you see the Word in flesh though it’s clouded out by sin
What an honour to stand the test though you suffer some rejection
For there’s eternal value in that friend, if there’s God’s election.
