In Hard Times

There comes a time you begin to doubt God Though your soul proves your thoughts wrong Ur mind and flesh conspires against your heart It's a fight, more brutal than u think Yet the bruces can't be seen physically Hidden to the human eye, though the pain can be felt Temptations grow with your faith, it ain't a sweet bed U get down on your knees asking God why those things happen to you We never understand Gods' mind, yet He tolerates our stupidity All hope seems lost Got no where to shed my tears Can't trust the world, it has done more harm than good They told me to hold on, leaving me to the beast To all of the best I dreamt seems a fantasy What can a man do when his stumbled on? The world come crushing, only for me to sit and wait In those times I closed my eyes and called on Him His promises filled my mind, assurance covered me For I know He keeps His promises to all equally If I am a sinner or saint, God only knows my deeds In this times, I only need His love and protection.
