1PETER – Through the Fire by Bro H

Verse 1 Christ suffered in the flesh—so gird your mind the same He who suffers turns from sin, no longer lives for vain The time past was enough in the ways we walked before Lusts and excess, empty paths—we don’t run there anymore They think it strange we don’t walk as they do Speak evil against what is righteous and true But they will give account when the Judge is revealed Every work brought forth, every hidden thing sealed Chorus Through the fire, we are tried Not cast down, not denied Stand firm, don’t turn aside Through the fire, we abide Gird your mind, stand awake Every word you must not break Hold the line for His name’s sake Through the fire, we won’t shake Verse 2 The end of all things is nearer than we see So be sober in spirit, watch in prayer continually Above all have love, fervent and strong Serving one another, where we truly belong If any man speaks, let it be from the Word If any man serves, let it be by the Lord That in all things God alone may be praised Through Jesus Christ, now and all of our days Verse 3 Think it not strange when the trial burns hot This fire refines—it proves what’s true, what’s not If you suffer for Christ, then you’re blessed in His sight The Spirit rests on you in the middle of the fight But not as a sinner, not for doing wrong But suffering for truth, standing firm, standing strong Judgment begins at the house of God If the righteous are tested, what of those who stand opposed? Chorus (repeat) Through the fire, we are tried Not cast down, not denied Stand firm, don’t turn aside Through the fire, we abide Gird your mind, stand awake Every word you must not break Hold the line for His name’s sake Through the fire, we won’t shake Verse 4 Humble yourselves under His mighty hand He will lift you up when He has planned Cast all your cares—He sees, He knows He holds the weight of all your woes Be sober, be watchful, stay aware Adversaries move through slander and snare Like roaring lions seeking whom to break Twisting the truth for destruction’s sake Verse 5 Resist them steady, firm in the faith You’re not alone in the trials you face After you suffer, He will restore Strengthen, establish you evermore The Shepherd will come, the crown will remain Glory unfading beyond all pain Stand through the night till the morning is clear The faithful Creator is always near Final Chorus The trial of your faith is tried by fire Far more precious than gold that will expire After you have suffered, He makes you stand He will strengthen, stablish by His hand
