Trust



I love God's path of freedom,
with grace and patience
nudging gently and compelling,
He empowers and inspires
dormant soul to be awakened, bold.
When, in loneliness, I bend,
crushed as if with thoughts of selfish end,
He stands  by me again in every trial.

Did not the Saviour pray
the night he was betrayed
for all who come to Him
by truth, be set apart?
Then, may His light ignite
refiner's fire in my heart.
