"By Faith" by Keith & Kristyn Getty

Congregational hymn sang after David gave his daughter, Regina, to Greg:


By faith we see the hand of God 
In the light of creation's grand design 
In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness,
who walk by faith and not by sight. 
By faith our fathers roamed the earth
With the power of His promise in their hearts 
Of a holy city built by God's own hand: 
A place where peace and justice reign. 
Refrain:
We will stand as children of the promise.
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward. 
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight. 
By faith the prophets saw a day
When the longed-for Messiah would appear. 
With the power to break the chains of sin and death
And rise triumphant from the grave. 
By faith the church was called to go
In the power of the Spirit to the lost 
To deliver captives and to preach good news
In every corner of the earth 
By faith this mountain shall be moved
And the power of the gospel shall prevail 
For we know in Christ all things are possible
For all who call upon His name 
We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward 
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight.
