To Be More Like Christ

In Romans 5, we find a truth so sweet 
Justification through faith, a gift complete
Peace with God, abundant grace in store
Boasting in hope, His glory we adore

Sufferings may come, but they have a purpose
Developing perseverance, shaping us with grace
Character refined, hope shining bright
In the midst of trials, His love takes flight

Embrace the sufferings, with joy in our hearts
For they are molding us, playing their part
Transformed into His likeness, we become
Hope rooted in Him, our eternal home

Hold fast to the truth, sufferings not in vain
Shaping us, refining us, in His name
Trust in His faithfulness, through every trial
For in Him, we find strength, all the while

So let us rejoice, in the midst of it all
For through sufferings, we hear His call
To be more like Christ, in every way
In Him, we find hope, day by day
