Faith is a tension between certainty and hope, doctrine and experience and it often hurts. But the comforter promises that what seems to be incredible and too good to be true, is in fact a reliable hope and that his pain is our cleansing

Lyrics
Too Good To Be True
close window
In heavenly love abiding
No change my heart shall fear
And safe is such confiding
For nothing changes here
The storm may roar without me
My heart may low be laid
God is round about me
So why do I still feel this way?
Oh wipe it away
I don't want to see you crying
It's too good to, Too good to be true
Like salt which stings an open wound
The pain I know is cleansing
It's too good to , Too good to be true
Wherever he may guide me
No want shall turn me back
My shepherd is beside me
And nothing can I lack
Oh wipe it away
I don't want to see you crying
It's too good Toto good to be true
Like salt which stings an open wound
The pain I know is cleansing
It's too good to , Too good to be true
Green pastures are before me
Which yet I have not seen
Bright skies will soon be over me
Where the dark clouds once have been
I don't want to see you crying
Wipe those tears away,
Like salt which stings an open wound
My pain for you is cleansing
So wipe those tears, wipe those tears away
Come see my hands
Touch my side
Wipe those tears away
In heavenly love abiding
No change my heart shall fear
And safe is such confiding
For nothing changes, right here
