Rising Up Amidst Darkness

and Oppression

I

With a strong will I stand against the roar of evil. On the hard road, my heart becomes steadfast and strong. The true light guides me and I will follow. Mankind is so cruel, where is there room for God? So hard to be human and to believe in the true God. With an abiding heart I will follow God. With my heart loving God, I will emit light and heat, faithful to the end, bearing witness to glorify God. No matter how God refines me, I will stand witness and satisfy Him.

Our Hearts Are Sweetened by Enjoying God’s Words

Praise God Hymn

Our Hearts Are Sweetened

by Enjoying God's Words

I

We accept the judgment of God's words, experience the trials, experience the refinement. We know that we have been so deeply corrupted, long ago lost our conscience, long ago lost our reason. We expend for God just to receive His blessings. We don't treat Him like God. His disposition is both holy and righteous. No one may deceive Him. Raised up before God, our hearts are sweetened by enjoying God's words. We enjoy His feast. It is God's greatest blessing.

The Spirit of Peter—The Banner of Victory

Hymn

The Spirit of Peter—The Banner of Victory

I

The Word appearing in the flesh is God Himself. He's the real true God in front of our eyes. Before ages He predestined my birth in the last days. He's conquered and saved, bestowed life on me. I forge this ultimate love with God, spirit of Peter shows in the last days. God's creative power is limitless, new people He's made in His image. I resolve to follow the practical God, come what may. I will not rest until I have known God. Unfit to be called human if I can't suffer for Him. Ashamed if I cannot repay His love.

Resolved to Remain Utterly Devoted to God

Hymn

Resolved to Remain

Utterly Devoted to God

I

There I was, broken and shattered, held in Satan's hand. Till I heard God's voice calling me and I woke from sleep. Then I saw the vast measure of God's awesome love, all His pain, agonies He suffered to save me. When He calls, I should leap at His voice. And all He asks, what an honor to serve! As God leads, I'll grow stronger with life's challenges. With my hand on the plow, how can I look back? If I just care about my own future and fate, how can I be thoughtful of what God might want? Oh how rare is this kingdom's training (training)!

The Path of Loving God Exposes Truth and Falsehood

Hymn

The Path of Loving God

Exposes Truth and Falsehood

I

Those who love God obey Him, their hearts show kindness. Those who don't, rebel against Him, striving for their fate, without conscience. Those who love God, want righteousness, love truth, live by His words. They have honest hearts, faithful, pure. They cannot leave God forever more. Those who do not love God, they are treacherous. They are cunning, always scheming, with only their own interests in mind. Those who love God, consider His heart, expend faithfully, endure hardships without complaint, never caring for any reward. Everyone's exposed in God's work. His words are bright as a mirror. Everyone can check themselves in His disclosure to learn who they really are.

God's Love Awakens My Soul

Hymn

God's Love Awakens My Soul

I

Satan has corrupted my soul. I am so proud and vain. Satan has poisoned my thoughts. I long to love You but fall short, oh, but fall short. The judgment of Your words makes me know myself. I see my corruption, that no part of me is good. No conscience, no sense, no dignity remain. Without salvation, I might live like one who is dead. You face danger to work among us, judge, refine and call us, renew our corrupted souls, then our lives have value. I will suffer all there is to suffer, offer my final devotion. I will be an honest man, and I will make no demands.

Oh God, My Heart Already Belongs to You

Hymn

Oh God,

My Heart Already Belongs to You

I

I used to shout my love for You, there were things for You that I forsook. I know now it was for the crown and the blessing I hoped to gain. I feel remorseful in my heart, to bargain with You is so base. Your refinements purify me. My impurities are erased. Oh God! My heart loves You always! Today's love feels more real. Oh God! Your righteousness and deeds, Your holiness on earth revealed. Oh God! My heart loves You always. Your image is so beauteous. Oh God! My heart belongs to You. I have so much love to express.
