Faith Without Works

WRITTEN BY: OWEN TEMPLE

 
What am I doing with my days
I can spend my time so many ways
Work I could do running through my head
But faith without works is dead

There is a meaning you can find
In every action, heart, and mind
Uncover this, I thought I heard it said
Cause faith without works is dead

Once I’d seen my reflection in the glass
I could not forget it and walk on past

There is a truth written by a hand
Read it in the sea and sky and land
I’ll walk and labor where I’m led
Cause faith without works is dead

We can build cities made of stone
Or we can help a lost heart home
Cities don’t last as long as words you said
And faith without works is dead

I heard a perfect law of liberty
Love’s the only work that can make us free

There is a work you need most to do
And there is a work the world needs most from you
The place where you get both is where you are led
And faith without works is dead

Faith without works is dead
