Once Again
Once again the trials come to sway my faith and view,
Once again the doubts arise and life seems without clue
Even though the truth prevails and ultimately I know,
I'll walk the straight and narrow path, now which way do I go?
The night is dark and on this trail seems I am all alone,
Yet deep within my heart I know your presence's never gone
But once again it seems the load is more than I can bear,
And then within the darkness You say, 'Cast on me your care'.
Once again I'm reassured this too shall pass away,
If somehow I will not depend on flesh as arm of stay
For in the midst of trials, doubts and loneliness I find,
Your faithfulness will bring to me the needed peace of mind!
So once again I lay myself prostrate before you now,
Seeking your forgiveness, tender mercies shown somehow
For greater is the need of You than is the need of me,
I lay it all down at your feet again to be set free!
Once again let faith arise and bring about your peace,
For when your peace prevails all doubts and sorrows have to cease
You are the great I AM and with You all things can be done,
So once again I walk in light, the light of your dear Son!
