It’s interesting to see how God prepares you for the future when you look back on your past. I say that because today I was listening to some old cassettes of songs I had written several years back. Most of them are worship songs to be sung in a church worship setting. And, keep in mind I’m a simple writer. I don’t claim to be the best songwriter or even a good one. I just write. Anyway, as I was driving in my van to an appointment today I came across a song of mine called “Trust You Lord.” I wrote this song during my “single years” of more than six years ago. You’ll see why I was brought to tears hearing myself sing these lyrics in light of my present circumstances.
TRUST YOU LORD
VERSE 1
I will lay my hurting heart at Your altar
And trust You Lord
Trust You Lord
I will trust You with my faith that falters
I will trust You Lord
I will lift my empty hands to Your altar
And trust You Lord
Trust You Lord
I give my life a token of surrender
I will trust You Lord
CHORUS
I will trust You Lord
After all look at all the miracles You do
I will trust You Lord
I give You my mustard seed of faith
And I will trust You Lord
VERSE 2
I will lay my joy and dreams at Your altar
And trust You Lord
Trust You Lord
I will trust You when the time is uncertain
I will trust You Lord
TAG
Handing my heart over to You
Putting my faith in all that You do
Knowing that You love me
I will trust You Lord
I will trust You Lord
I will trust You Lord
