When I Trust

When I doubt You, my dear Lord
Living Truth and Life
When I doubt Your holy Word
Victim of this strife
When I listen to the voice
Of hate instead of love
You remind me there’s a choice
You will not be moved

When I doubt Your mighty power
And trust in my weak will
When I stumble in an hour
You desire to fill
Remind me of Your love so true
Oh, how can I forget?
To put my every hope in You
You have not failed me yet

When I doubt the devil laughs
Victor of his spoils
Master of the dust and chaff
The fruit of evil toils
But when I trust the angels sing
And heaven draws so near
God, help me trust in everything
Your perfect will so dear
