Do I Trust You Lord | Thursday, January 31, 2008


Sometimes my little hope can't understand
what's in Your Will
what's in Your Plan
So many times I'm tempted to ask You why

But I can never forget it for long
Lord what You do could not be wrong
So I believe You even when I must cry.

Do I trust You Lord
Does the river flow
Do I trust You Lord
Does the North Wind blow
You can see my heart
You can read my mind
and You got to know
I would rather die than to lose my faith
in the One I love
Do I trust You Lord
Do I trust You

I know the answer
I've given them all
but certainly now I feel so small
shaken down to the cavity in my soul
I know the doctrine and theology
but right now they don't mean much to me
This time there's only one thing I got to know

Do I trust You Lord
Does the robin sing
Do I trust You Lord
Does it rain in Spring
You can see my heart
You can read my mind
and You got to know
I would rather die than to lose my faith
in the One I love
Do I trust You Lord
Do I trust You

I will trust You Lord
when I don't know why
I will trust You Lord
till the day I die
I will trust You Lord
when I'm blind with pain
You were God before
and You never change

Do I trust You
Do I trust You
Do I trust You

I will trust You
I will trust You Lord
I will trust You Lord

I am very touched by this song when I heard it for the first time on Rachel's MP3 player. It is so rich in meaning and it certainly touches my heart because it is so true and I believe that this song describes our trust and love for God when the situation for the present moment makes it difficult that God is there with me, for me, let alone that He loves and cares for me but it never changes the fact that God loves us especially when we don't feel His comforting Presence with us when we are blind with pain, hurts and discouragements.

No matter what happens to us, be it good or bad, especially in difficult times, we always question the reality of God's love, in our hearts and with our close friends and whether we have the energy to trust Him and to carry on with our lives when it's so easy to give up on ourselves, God and ministry but one thing is for sure that we would rather die than to lose whatever little faith that we have for Him. That is all we have, and this little faith is also the reason that we persever on for Him and keep on believing that God sees, understands our pain and that He will send us the relief soon for He is always with us.

It is this belief that God is with us and that He will never leave us nor forsake us that keeps us going on, each step of the time even when we don't know where we are going and when it is so difficult to see the road ahead and when we are so tired of going but God always lead us by the hand and He is the One who carries us.

The only thing that I could do is to trust in God and love Him for who He really is and not just a figment of my mind or imagination. God has always been so faithful and the only thing left for me to do is, "

Yes Lord, I will trust You
I will trust in You Lord
I don't dare to say I will love You for all eternity
but one day at a time
I will trust You Lord

One day at a time
I will love You Lord
One day at a time
This is what I can do
and I do love You Lord and I will trust You Lord

when I don't know why
when I don't see the road ahead
when I could not see a road
when I am tired and weary

One thing I can do in those situations
I will trust You Lord
I will trust You
I will trust You Lord
