Faith of our fathers, living still
In spite of dungeon, fire and sword,
O how our hearts beat high with joy
Whene’er we hear that glorious word!
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!

Our fathers, chained in prisons dark,
Were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children’s fate,
If they, like them should die for thee:
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!
Were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children’s fate,
If they, like them should die for thee:
Faith of our fathers! holy faith!
We will be true to thee till death!

Faith of our fathers, we will strive
To win all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God
Mankind shall then indeed be free.

Faith of our fathers, we will love
Both friend and foe in all our strife,
And preach thee, too, as love knows how
By kindly words and virtuous life.

As I was taking my bath this morning, this blessed song kept ringing in my spirit. I bless God for my parents Elder and Mrs. Wilson Obiorah who showed me the true path to follow, and introduced the faith of Jesus Christ to me and my siblings.
I'm so glad that today, I found joy in leading young people to Jesus.
God willing I will be true to this faith till death.
Glory to God in the highest.

Romans 8:38-39
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39. Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

This hymn speaks more of Philippians 1.
Itโs really a blessed hymn that enables me continually serve our Heavenly Father in truth and in spirit.
