Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Sometimes my little heart can't understand

What's in Your will, what's in Your plan

So many times I'm tempted to ask You why


But I can never forget it for long

Lord, what You do could not be wrong

So I believe You even when I must cry


Do I trust You, Lord? Does the river flow?

Do I trust You, Lord? Does the north wind blow?

You can see my heart, You can read my mind

And You've got to know, I would rather die

Than to lose my faith in the One I love

Do I trust You, Lord? Do I trust You?


I know the answers, I've given them all

But suddenly now, I feel so small

Shaken down to the cavity in my soul


I know the doctrine and theology

But right now they don't mean much to me

This time there's only one thing I've got to know


Do I trust You, Lord? Does the robin sing?

Do I trust You, Lord? Does it rain in spring?

You can see my heart, You can read my mind

And You got to know I would rather die

Than to lose my faith in the One I love

Do I trust You, Lord? Do I trust You?


I will trust You, Lord, when I don't know why

I will trust You, Lord, till the day I die

I will trust You, Lord, when I'm blind with pain

You were God before and You'll never change


I will trust You, I will trust You

I will trust You, Lord

I will trust You, I will trust You

I will trust You, Lord


I will trust You, I will trust You

I will trust You, Lord
