I WILL TRUST in the goodness of God
Highest King with the heart of a father
Though our eyes may struggle to see
The vision of heaven is greater.
I will trust in the wisdom of God
With the light that He gives never dimming
Earthly wisdom was stunned by the cross
But here our new life was beginning.
I will trust in His unfailing love
Reaching out to the lost and the broken
Earth may only remember the great
But for all, Christ’s mercy has spoken.
Father of all
In Christ I’m free
His Spirit lives in me.
