I know to God I am precious,
for He sent to me this trial
His grace shall be sufficient
in this, there can be no denial.
Though my faith is being tested,
through the furnace I need to go
when all is said and done
there’ll be a heavenly afterglow.
All this pain and suffering,
are but for a passing moment
for the blood of Jesus . . .
shall be my eternal atonement.
One day I know I will see,
my Lord’s glorious appearing
and that is why this trial . . .
to me ~ is worth enduring.

1 Peter 1:7
“That the trial of your faith,
being much more precious
than of gold that perisheth,
though it be tried with fire,
might be found unto praise
and honour and glory
at the appearing of Jesus Christ:”
King James Version
