Lyrics
Faith That Did Not Waiver ©2015 Janet Steely / Bruce Trent
1: She was a woman of faith / Sherry served God's people well.
& Like the women of the Holy book /// her children call her blessed.
CH: With her words and with her life / She gave us all a testimony
Of a faith that did not waiver /Faith filled with grace . . . / / and filled with glory
V2: It is a beautiful thing / it can make your sad heart sing
When God's children pass through heaven's gates// to live eternally
V3: Oh In the blink of an eye / She made her heavenly flight
One moment in her husband's arms // the next at Jesus side
Can you hear ... hear Jesus say?
Welcome home Sherry
CH: cause With your words and with your life / you lived to me a testimony
Showing faith that did not waiver / you received my grace // lived in my glory
Musical interlude
Bridge: Oh how our hearts grieve our loss /But we know it's heaven's gain
& we have this blessed hope /we'll be together again
Final CH: So with our words and with our lives, let us all live a testimony
Of a faith that does not waiver/ faith filled with grace // & filled with glory
Tag: Abide in faith filled with grace / and filled with His glory
