[Verse:]
When life seems cruel and so unfair,
with each new day it seems a greater problem's waiting there.
For each step forward I take, seems I get pushed two steps behind.
Don't think I'm gonna make it sometimes,
don't think my nerves can take it this time,
as I'm about to call it quits the solution comes to mind.
[Chorus 1:]
Why not trust God again;
I know that He can do it if I pray again,
believe again, my God will work it for my good again.
I know that He will see me through it all if I trust in God again.
[Bridge:]
Is there a mountain standing in your way?
Is there a loved one you're worried about today (worried about today)?
(Ooh) Is there a blessing you desire that seems intangible?
Instead of giving up the fight,
just cling to faith with all your might,
the One that's seen you through before
is still able (able, able, able),
He's still able (able, able, able).
'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
just to take Him at His word.
[Chorus 2:]
Why not trust God again;
I know that He can do it if I pray again,
believe again, I know that God will work it for my good again.
I know that He will see me through it all...
[Sopranos:] Why not trust
[All:] God again,
I know that He can do it if I pray again,
believe again, I know that God will work it for my good again.
I know that He will see me through it all if I trust (in God again).
[Vamp:]
I will, I will,
I will trust in God again.
