What do I do when I face hard trials,
When I only have the knowledge of a young child?
Will something happen that makes it feel like it’s me versus the world?
Only time will tell.
When it seems like you just can't make it through.
I know Someone who's watching over you.
After the rain must come sunshine.
However, I know Someone, I am His and He is mine.
His name is Jesus, He keeps you warm in the cold.
He wraps you in His tender love and keeps you strong.
He knows exactly what you are going through.
And He died for me and you.
Accept Him, love Him, and serve Him.
Give Him your all, because He's worthy, too.
Can't you give Him all of you, for all He's done?
Why Can't You?
