I Trust You


It gives me relief knowing that there is Someone who is in control. I know that things can be beyond my control, even myself. I know that whatever happens in my life happens for a reason. Thank You God!

I Trust You by James Fortune

(verse)
even though i can't see
and i can't feel your touch
i will trust you lord
how i love you so much
though my nights my seem long
and i feel so alone
lord my trust is in you
i surrender to you

(bridge)
so many painful thoughts
travel through my mind
and i wonder how
i will make it through this time

(chorus)
but i trust you
lord it's not easy
sometimes the pain in my life
makes you seem far away
but i'll trust you
i need to know you're here
through the tears and the pain
through the heartache and rain

i'll trust you

(verse 2)
everything that i see
tells me not to believe
but i'll trust you lord
you have never failed me

my past still controls me
will this hurt ever leave?
i can only trust you
no one else like you do

No More Nights by David Phelps 
 
The timeless theme, earth and
heaven will pass away. It's not a
dream, God will make all things
new that day. Gone is the curse
from which I stumbled and fell.
Evil is banished to eternal hell.

No more night. No more pain.
No more tears. Never crying
again. And praises to the great "I
AM." We will live in the light of
the risen Lamb.

See all around, now the nations
bow down to sing. The only
sound is the praises to Christ,
our King. Slowly the names from
the book are read. I know the
King, so there's no need to dread.

No more night. No more pain.
No more tears. Never crying
again. And praises to the great "I
AM." We will live in the light of
the risen Lamb.

See over there, there's a mansion,
oh that's prepared just for me,
where I will live with my savior
eternally.

No more night. No more pain.
No more tears. Never crying
again. And praises to the great "I
AM." We will live in the light of
the risen Lamb.

All praises to the great "I AM."
We're gonna live in the light of
the risen Lamb.


Looking at an image of someone that means so much to you gives you memories. Sometimes it brings back emotions that you want to feel again. Sometimes it doesn't and what you feel is grief or pain because it seems that you've lost that person...or maybe you have if you've lost someone because of death. Emotions are only temporary compared to the fullness of eternity. It may hurt now, but what we have beyond this life is incomparable to what we will have for eternity. It gives me hope when we look forward to a life after death with Jesus. No more tears, no more pain.
