What Faith Can Do


About a few weeks ago, me and a couple of friends attended Kutless' worship concert here in the Philippines. It was their first time in the country. The concert was a blessing because we got the tickets for free. Usually, when well-known international Christian artists hold concerts here in the Philippines, it costs at least Php200. But this time, it didn't cost me anything. Even the lines were not long.

Kutless, a Christian rock band, was introduced to me by a friend about 3 years ago. I fell in love with their song, Sea of Faces, and it still remains to be one of my favorites. But right now, I'm not that very much updated with their songs anymore. But even if I wasn't, I still went to the worship concert hoping to be refreshed. Things has been going pretty busy lately and I need a breath of fresh air - and I sure I could get that through worshipping.

One of my buddies who joined me that night told me that one of his favorite is What Faith Can Do.
I didn't have the time to research the song before the concert. But during the worship, when the band started to sing it, the lyrics of the song just caught me unprepared. I was stunned. It was beautiful. For some strange reason, it reflected the feelings and thoughts that I had. In fact, this song pretty much summarized my soul's concerns. And as I read the lyrics over the screen, I knew it was God talking to me. He was encouraging me to strengthen my faith and to remind me of where I should stand and what I should be doing.

What Faith Can Do is a wonderful song that serves as a simple reminder to all of us when the going gets tough and when we are desperate for a fresh start. Just listen to the song and open your heart. It's God's sweet message to all of us.

Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it’s more than you can take
But you're stronger, stronger than you know
Don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard
Impossible is not a word
It’s just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It’ll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds

You don't have a chance
(That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It’ll tell you that you can!

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise
