Faith of our fathers, living still

The anchor of this song is on the first and second line of the first stanza of this hymn.

Here we see an impeccable faith, an uncompromizable faith. A first inspired by true love of our savior Christ. A faith mysterious to a carnal man. What a faith that won't give inspite of dungeon and fire.

When the wicked rose against the unity of the body of Christ, when they rose to condemn to death all who gathered in the name of our Lord as a church.

Threatened by fire, reptiles, swords, amongst others, just to enforce recanting of our holy faith. But yet, the faith of our fathers, their holy faith, remained true to God till death.

Oh! What a wonderful path to follow. Oh what a wonderful faith to emulate. Oh what a wonderful love to continue. At this times of perplexity, at this time of trials, at this moment of chaos. Oh what an inspiration to us Christians.

Stay still and steadfast on your faith as our fathers did, even though it cost your life, it is only a beginning to a new life eternal in a world of no sorrows, no pain, no weeping. A dwelling place of our father, "Heaven".

There's absolutely nothing to regret when we cling to that old rugged cross.

Peace be unto us. Amen!

I felt renewed after listening to this hymn today in mass

I use to listen to this song, but now this is song is speaking deep thing of the spirit to me. I love this song.

I was surprised that this is a Catholic hymn. We sang it in the Methodist Episcopal church when I was a child, and in the Lutheran Church as well. When the congregations sang this hymn we sang all verses and very loudly. It is obviously a generally loved hymn. It speaks to us all.

I love listening to this hymn on the Feast Day of Saints Peter and Paul.

My icons of faith!

Great song. Inspiring Faith, commitment and dedication. I cherish this song so much. It evokes an aura/ atmosphere of the reality of Christian sacrifice for me and makes me shed tears inwardly. Thank you Father God for your grace to stand firm till the end. Hallellujah.

Each time I listen or I am singing this song, it's as if Jesus will just come and takes me home. I so much love this hymn. May God help me to the end In Jesus Name

May His grace be sufficient for us all in Jesus name

I love this song infact I felt renewed after listening to this song

May the good Lord revive us all in these times and give us great faith like our fathers as stated in Hebrews chapter 11
