An original composition Composer Cynthia Dobrinski takes inspiration for this original composition from I John 5:4 and Hebrews 12:2 (the faith chapter). The introduction, like faith, begins small and then grows. The melody is almost march-like, but more emotional. A section of marted chords may be interpreted to show the tenacious spirit faith must take. The ending is triumphant and rung at fff. Written in C Major, measures total 94.
