For All Seasons' song "Light & Momentary" is a worship ballad that encourages believers to hold onto hope in Jesus Christ during difficult times. The lyrics acknowledge trials, tears, doubts, and feelings of being unloved, but repeatedly affirm that the cross of Christ is sufficient. The song draws on the biblical idea that present hardships are temporary and lead to an eternal glory that far outweighs them. It expresses a deep conviction that nothing in this life compares to having God, and it calls listeners to remember God's faithfulness and the promise of new life through Jesus.

We remember
When the miracles still won't come
You're the answer
Your cross is still enough
We remember
When we lose our sight from the tears we cry
You're the answer
Your cross is still enough
We hold tight to the promise of new life
Our hope in Jesus Christ
Will never fail or fall
These light and momentary trials
Are gaining us a prize
That far outweighs them all
We remember
When the calm won't come, when we feel unloved
You're the answer
Your cross is still enough
We remember
When the lies take hold, and the doubts won't go
You're the answer
Your cross is still enough
We hold tight to the promise of new life
Our hope in Jesus Christ
Will never fail or fall
These light and momentary trials
Are gaining us a prize
That far outweighs them all
There's nothing in this life that I could lose
That ever could compare to having You
God, there's nothing in this life that I could lose
That ever could compare to having You
We hold tight to the promise of new life
Our hope in Jesus Christ
Will never fail or fall
'Cause these light and momentary trials
They are gaining us a prize
That far outweighs them all
We hold tight to the promise of new life
Our hope in Jesus Christ
Will never fail or fall
Oh, these light and momentary trials
They are gaining us a prize
That far outweighs them all
It far outweighs them all
Oh, You far outweigh them all
