Trust In You Alone
At the foot of the cross, I see love poured out.
7-inch nails driven through His hands and feet that held Him there, with a crown of thorns struck on His head.
Christ's death was so gruesome, so painful, yet He endured it because His love for us was greater still. A love like this I cannot fathom, far beyond my comprehension.
What was agony became my freedom, what was darkness became my light.
The nails, the crown, the spear that pierced His side; all because He loved me.
My Savior, with nail-scarred hands, stood in the place where I should've been, bearing the fullness of God's wrath for me.
Every breath I breathe is a gift of His mercy to wake each morning, to live another day, to walk in His goodness, to make His name known.
Because of the brutal agony He endured, but of the victorious and glorious work my Savior did for you and me on the cross at Calvary.
Whatever may come in my life, I know that Christ is right there with me.
With my new beginnings, I will trust that in every opportunity, God's hand is within it all.
I will trust in You alone, O my God.
If you shut the door, I know another will open when the time is right. Only in You can I find all that I will ever need.
In You alone I will trust, my firm foundation, my sure confidence, my eternal joy and hope.
May Your will be done, O Lord. I will trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness.
Amen. To God be the glory, the praise, forever and ever, for all eternity.
