God Cares for You

God Cares for You

There is no sorrow God doth not bear.
There is no grief He will not share.
He sees and knows when your heart is aching,
And understands when it's nearly breaking.
He'll give you comfort, peace and rest;
And help you through this hardest test.
He'll never fail you.  His Word stands true.
I know He'll sustain and strengthen you.
Trust in the Lord
a simple child-like faith;
He's here, He's there, He's everywhere,
And He is never late.
Trust in His Word,
It gives such sweet relief-
In sunshine or rain, sickness or pain,
And in our deepest grief.
Trust with all thine heart.
Hold nothing back from Him-
Every thought and deed,
even smallest need.
The way is never dim.
Lean not upon the flesh
for it will surely fail.
To understand is sinking sand
Along this Pilgrim trail.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart
and lean not unto thine own understanding.  Proverbs 3:5
