You see yourself walking alone In a path you have never been before Winds are blowing from every side You can't seem to find your way out For every try you seem to fall Can't seem to get a step too far Your friends and family don't seem to understand Your strength is drained, your voice is faint As tears of sorrow roll down your chicks You realise that you are in a trial It seems so hard and time so slow A day in one seems like an endless pit Your faith seems gone but you hope to pull thru Your so discouraged by all that's around you The courage you find is in past victories But it only brings more pain Knowing the position you are in Is worse than the one you were once before This trial seems more than what you can bear Sometimes we are pushed so deep in the valley It looks way out of control, but He knows what He's doing Sometimes it seems we fight a loosing battle But the battle is not yours saith the Lord We panic and faint when things go wrong But you just be still and know He's God God runs a very neat and tidy office And He is good for every promise You might be unbalanced but He is balanced, You might be in a hurry, but God is always on time Whatever you are going through God knows that is what you can take He knows it is within you to overcome that TRIAL Why we got trials is because God loves us. God says 'If you knew the bigger picture you would volunteer for it.' So in your trial just remember, Character is a victory not a gift For your TRIAL is worth to you more than precious gold. (Hopie T, inspired by Gary Walker)
