We say we trust God with a smile and a cheer,
But storms show the truth when trouble draws near.
If we are scared, we should stand strong and say,
“I will trust the Lord. He’ll show me the way.”
God doesn’t test us to make us feel bad,
He teaches and comforts us when we are sad.
Like with the Israelites wandering far and wide,
He will walk right beside us and be our guide.
When people hurt us, we might want to cry,
But God’s comfort is real, not pie in the sky.
He never is fickle, unkind, or unfair.
His mercy and love are always right there.
We pray and we pout when we don’t get our way,
But God didn’t promise new gifts every day.
He gives us his presence, his peace, and his joy,
Not glitter or gadgets or some magic toy.
Trust isn’t easy. It requires our choice—
To follow God’s ways as we hear his voice:
“Don’t be afraid. There’s no need to frown.
Let me hold you in my arms. I won’t let you down.”
