Trust is a valued trait
It’s something we must earn
To trust, casts out fear
Which is difficult to learn
It’s true trust has it’s risks
But without it we are lost
Fear becomes a way of life
And our peace becomes the cost
Trust can be a treasure
In the peace that it brings
It can also be a curse
When we trust in wrong things
When in God’s Holy Word
We truly place our trust
We are standing on the rock
For He is righteous and just
But when we trust in the world
And selfish motives are our goal
We let down our defenses
And the enemy takes control
In trust there is a peace
That we will achieve
Peace and love are ours
When in God’s Son we believe
“Do not let your hearts be troubled
Trust in God, trust also in me”
Jesus tells us with these words
The way God set us free
Free from doubt and fear
And the loneliness that it brings
Free from the enemy’s clutches
As we cast down selfish things
“I am, the way, the truth and the life”
Jesus did proclaim
“I am the only way to the father”
We can trust in Jesus’ name
As we trust in him
We are filled with love and joy
As we share his precious love
The enemy’s kingdom we’ll destroy
If you’re feeling lost and lonely
And life’s set you adrift
If fear and doubt have gripped you
And you really need a lift.
It doesn’t matter if you’re old
Or in the prime of youth
God’s kingdom can be yours
When you trust in the truth
