Trust in you

 

There have been times when Ive lost faith in myself but never in you.

Because you held on to your loyalty since before I came out of the womb.

And I know that truth will behold until i lay in my tomb. You’ll continue to reach out for my hand despite all the poison I consume. 

You see?

Different types of poison exists every where that I go. 

And the enemy stays on his goal, he takes advantage of every opportunity to conquer my soul. 

But as long as I continue to see your footsteps behind me. 

I know I’ll be sheltered by your wings where the opposition can’t find me.

Because it’s by my works of faith that  MY God defines me.

So I’ll continue to surf these waves no matter how big the tides be. 

Ive crawled  through valleys of death, convinced that  it was  over.

Only to realize that you kept your hand on my shoulder... through all the mist.

Never have I felt a love like this. 

So, in my God I trust... 

and let these words that I speak  be like fire on my toung. 

Let them be full of love as the time you sacrificed your only begotten son.

Allow me to live by your light until my time is done.

 Because in my God I trust...

Even when I lack trust in myself.

You continued to sustain me through my darkest moments  and you  heard my cry’s for help.

You still lifted me up as a king no matter how many times my crown hit the ground. 

I’ll follow your footsteps the best way that can,  a love like yours can never be found.

 

I’m my God I trust.
