This simple song came out of a text immersion with pastors during the pandemic from Olive Branch Community in Rochester, MN. 2 Corinthians 4 sees the Apostle Paul describe a heart-wrenching season of life with a trust that his and Timothy's lives and ministry has purpose and meaning. Do not lose heart Do not lose heart Life is at work Do not lose heart Take courage, friends Take courage, friends Lean into love Take courage, friends Words and music by Richard Bruxvoort Colligan ©2020 Worldmaking.net (ASCAP).
