JUST TRUST HIM 
 
He knows my  secret longings 
He knows my silent tears 
As we walk through the meadows 
He holds onto my fears
 
When my head is asleep and on my pillow
 In the wee hours past midnight 
I know that God was  with me somewhere in my room last night 
He watches and never sleeps...He tends my fragile cares 
And in the quiet hours I know He is keeping 
As He whispers to me a prayer 
 
I trust Him for the answers 
That my heart can't give 
I know God holds my tomorrow 
I'm knowing each day is mine and His
