Trust in Me

Look at me as I look at you

Trust in me for what I call you to do

There’s a still small voice in my heart

It calls for me to never depart

To hold on tight to his love

He says to me coming down from above

Look at me as I look at you

Trust in me for what I call you to do

My life finds meaning, a reason to live

A grace to love, he does give

Humble and meek I want to be

In all things he calls out to me

Look at me as I look at you

Trust in me for what I call you to do

Forgiven, My Child

You are forgiven my child

You are forgiven my child

I have loved you through it all

You are forgiven my child

Though the enemy pursues

He will not take you from me

Hold on tight through the storm

And I will protect you

I am all you need

I am all you need

Lean on me

And I will hold you close

My child
