Trust in Him

Trust In Him

In times of trouble, in times of distress;
You can turn to Him, He will give you rest.
Perfect peace the Lord will give to you,
When you trust in Him, He will see you through.

Those who call on His name He will not reject,
But in His love and mercy He will protect.
So praise the Lord for being your guide,
A true and loving heart He will not deny.

In the dark night His teaching fills your mind,
In His loving promises a refuge you can find.
You can look to Him in your time of fear,
When you call on His name He will hear.

Be alert and firm in your faith, brave and strong,
When you follow Him He guards you from wrong.
Let the Lord be your guide, let Him lead you,
Let Him dwell in your heart, He is always true.

Some may trust in silver, some may trust in gold,
But they will be left out, shivering in the cold.
Some will trust in treasures, some in fame,
But you can always rest assured in His Holy name.

Trust the Lord to lead you, He is the way.
He will teach you, He gives you the words to say.
When someone attacks you, calling you odd,
Lift high your banner in the name of God.

It is the Lord that make us strong and grants us peace,
That we may know from sin’s grip we have our release.
It is the Lord whom we depend on to guard and protest.
When you cry out for His mercy, He does not reject.
Praise be to the Lord most High.
