Encouragement
In times of depression
In times of strife
I have to trust God with my life
This circle of people called friends
Sometimes presents nightmares
My frustration makes me not care
But God wouldn't put nothing on me
That I couldn't bare
Anytime I need him he's right there
Jesus was the greatest example of love
Wise as a serpent,But gentle as a dove
I must remember this in my anguished times
I can make it just believe it in my mind
The lord is my sheperd and he watches me
I must receive this in my spirit
Making this a reality
My heart is strong with knowing my master
Now situations I see impossible
Are not such a disaster.
