"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths" Proverbs 3:5-6
“What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.”
Psalm 56:3
REMEMBER TO TRUST
I'm calling now to Christian friends so dear,
Reminding us to trust, we need not fear;
Our Lord is faithful. He has been to you, to me -
Through passing through most trying times you'll see
That NOTHING in darkest depths, nor height above,
Can separate us from the blessing of His love
Though grief He cause, His deep compassion will
Comfort bring in time of need. His Word, "BE STILL
AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD", calls us to rest,
To lean our weary heads secure on Jesus' breast;
Who wept among the mourners there at Bethany;
Who for us knew the depths of woe and grief at Calvary
Our Great High Priest, He ever lives to intercede,
Who never fails to meet His people's need.
Shepherd of the sheep, of their concerns aware,
Each one so precious, subject of His tender care.
He who while on earth did little children bless.
Feels still, and knows His loved ones deep distress.
He stilled the storm that blessed "Man of Galilee;
The turmoil of the heart is stilled at His decree.
Upon the "Man of sorrows" fix, dear ones, your gaze,
He brings us through in triumph, joy and praise.
I'm calling you, reminding us to keep our eyes
Upon the Lord so gracious, just and wise.
Though sorrows overwhelm, what can us harm,
Supporting us His strong, His everlasting arm.
Through this "vale of tears" He'll safely guide;
Our cries are heard, we shall not be denied.
Soon all earth's sorrows shall forgotten be,
Sin no more, death swallowed up in VICTORY!

“He maketh the storm a calm”
Psalm 107:29
