Lyrics & Lesson
Sometimes my little heart 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've 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 answers, I've given them all.
But suddenly 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've 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'll never change.
I will trust You, I will trust You
I will trust You, Lord
I will trust You, I will trust You
I will trust You, Lord
I will trust You, I will trust You
I will trust You, Lord
