From the recording Vocal Music--songs of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and His Atonement, His comfort and power,and His Res
Affirmation of our trust in the Lord, in our various mortal struggles. This song was composed in 2012, as my family ended a chapter of struggle and turmoil, beginning another that promised a fresh start and relief, but was fraught with a lot of uncertainty. Through fears, doubts, uncertainty, medical and financial struggles, even emotional struggles, we can know that His hand is always there, guiding us to His promised land.
Lyrics
I trust in Him through the night that seems so dark and long, When I can't see the path I walk, but can only hold the rod. I trust Him with a feeling sure, though the world says, you’re deceived. It’s a witness borne of Spirit pure, His joy, His love, His peace.
I trust in Him even when I've trusted Him before, And only found my path was leading to another door. I trust in Him to lead me on, even when I cannot see, I'll give my life, I'll give my love, I trust in Him.
I trust in Him even when the bank account shows nil, And there's mouths to feed, & bills to pay, & missions to fulfill. I trust in Him when He says, "give & you'll receive Blessings great, to overflowing, to meet your every need."
I trust in Him even when the doctor’s said, "It’s gone,
But we later learn that it’s come back, vicious, big, & strong.” I trust in Him to lead me on, even when I cannot see, I'll give my life, I'll give my love, I trust in Him. Oh, Lord, here’s my hand;
Take it; Lead me to the promised land.
Give me hope, give me strength to accept Thy time & will
To follow and endure, so He can promises fulfill.
I trust in Him because I trust He knows the narrow way, I trust in Him, for by His light, He'll lead me home by faith. I trust Him, so I give my will, and come with humble heart, To trust in His eternal grace and choose the better part. I trust Him when the answer's no, even though it seems so right, When I've worked & watched & fought & prayed, & endured the friendless night. I trust in Him to lead me on, even when I cannot see, I give my life, I give my all, I trust in Him.
I trust in Him even when it’s all that I can do, To keep trusting that by faith and hope, He will see us through.
I trust in Him to lead me on, even when I cannot see, I give my life, I give my all, I trust in Him. I trust in Him.
