I Will Trust

You are here: Christian Frustration > Emotional/Intellectual Response: Stony Places > Response to Suffering > I Will Trust

When I cannot understand God's leading,  
When I do not know the reason why  
He should choose the path that lies before me,  
Still to Him in faith I can reply:  
 
Chorus  
I will trust when I cannot see,  
When I'm faced with adversity,  
And believe Your will is always best for me  
I will trust when I cannot see.  
 
When I feel the sting of disappointment  
And my dreams lie crumbled in the dust  
When my best adds up to loss and failure  
And the things that happen seem unjust:  
 
Chorus  
 
When I face the furnace of affliction  
And the pain seems more than I can bear,  
When I think it strange this fiery trial  
Still I'll tell my blessed Lord in prayer.  
 
Chorus
