Choice to Trust

Track 8 • 3:43
Art for Choice to Trust

The Story

When the medical report is bad, the savings account is dwindling, or a relationship is falling apart, trust is rarely an effortless feeling. In fact, it usually feels like a battle. This song captures the gritty, stubborn decision to trust God’s character and promises even when the headlines are terrifying and your feelings are screaming at you to panic.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I stood firm when the heavy shadows fell When the floor shook, I knew my Anchor well Faced the giant, held my breath, and closed my eyes And watched Your glory split the stormy skies But normal mornings bring a different kind of war The quiet friction hiding just behind the door The missed appointments and the minor, heavy strains Where I forget that You are sovereign in the plains [Pre-Chorus] My heart is telling me to fear But I will remind it You are near I look to the One who rules the night... [Chorus] You held the storm, now hold the day Take my anxiety away In the heavy crisis or in the dust Step by step, it’s a choice to trust [Verse 2] If You didn’t spare Your holy Son If the greatest rescue has already won Why do I worry over numbers on a screen? Or all the broken pieces in the routine? You hold the sparrows, and You count the falling hair There’s not a moment that escapes Your care [Pre-Chorus] My heart is telling me to fear But I will remind it You are near I look to the One who rules the night... [Chorus] You held the storm, now hold the day Take my anxiety away In the heavy crisis or in the dust Step by step, it’s a choice to trust [Bridge] Be still, my soul, and tell the heart to hear The God of ages is the One who’s standing near His wisdom’s deeper than the paths I try to trace His love is wider than the doubts that I embrace Every hour, every second, every mundane mile Is working glory through the ordinary trial! [Pre-Chorus] My heart is telling me to fear But I will remind it You are near I look to the One who rules the night... [Chorus] You held the storm, now hold the day Take my anxiety away In the heavy crisis or in the dust Step by step, it’s a choice to trust [Outro] No grand display, just a simple design To trust in Your understanding, and give up mine Step by step... In the ordinary day.
