I have faith in Jesus the Christ, and in His healing power,
I trust that He's ahead of me, He meets me every hour.
I once sat with Him, and earnestly asked, "when will the healing come?"
Oh, little one, He would reply, "you can trust that my will be done."
Well Lord, I'm glad you're here with me, I'm glad to have your ear,
I'm especially glad that when it hurts, you immediately draw near.
The earth is large, the heavens vast, and yet you hear my voice,
you take the time to sit with me, you comfort me by choice.
I remember a time when I passed you by, although I saw you there,
you didn't walk away from me, you continued to show up and care.
Now I can't wait to sit with you, I depend on your presence still,
I no longer ask, "when will the healing come?", I'm now content inside your will.
Through the suffering and through the pain, I've learned to know your voice,
I no longer run away from you, I now sit with you by choice.
We talk about so many things as my heart lays bare before you,
and when I find myself overwhelmed with grief, you direct me to what is true.
You speak words of life into my ears, reminding me of all that is written,
in you my heart has learned to trust, with you I will always be smitten.
I've come to realize the ultimate blessing, that these trials drew me close to your side,
You've taken me to yourself, like a husband who remains close to his bride.
I'm glad to know your voice so well now, I'm glad you are my friend,
I'm glad that you are with me, and that it remains this way til the end!
With Jesus, I can walk through anything, because He's my salvation and my light,
With Him, I can see so clearly now, because He gave me sight.
I'm grateful for the trials and sorrow, if it means I get to suffer with the Son,
It brings me back to Abba's original word to me, "Little one, you can trust My will be done."
