In the Shadow of Sacrifice

Sometimes, standing firm for truth, 
Comes at a cost we cannot measure. 
As followers of Christ, we tread a path 
Where sacrifice and courage intertwine.

The world may scoff, the status quo resist, 
Yet our hearts echo the Savior’s call: 
To uphold justice, even when it hurts, 
To bear the weight of righteousness.

Following Jesus isn’t a promise of ease, 
But a journey through valleys and peaks. 
In the crucible of faith, we find strength, 
Our convictions forged in the fire of love.

When darkness surrounds us, fear creeps in, 
God’s compassion becomes our guiding star. 
He sustains us, whispers hope in the night, 
And reminds us that His grace is enough.

Our comfort fades against eternity’s canvas, 
Yet faithfulness to His principles remains. 
In the bleakest hours, we cling to His hand, 
Trusting that He provides, even when all seems lost.
