When I cannot understand God's leading,
When I do not know the reason why
He should choose the path that lies before me,
Still to Him in faith I can reply:
Chorus
I will trust when I cannot see,
When I'm faced with adversity,
And believe Your will is always best for me
I will trust when I cannot see.
When I feel the sting of disappointment
And my dreams lie crumbled in the dust
When my best adds up to loss and failure
And the things that happen seem unjust:
Chorus
When I face the furnace of affliction
And the pain seems more than I can bear,
When I think it strange this fiery trial
Still I'll tell my blessed Lord in prayer.
Chorus
