Living Through

When trouble stirs and your heart does pound,
always know there's a lesson to be learned,
for God never puts a problem
where a solution cannot be found

From its beginning to its thankful end,
there may be hardship along the way,
but never forget this one unwavering fact,
He is keeping watch like a dear old friend

For no one can duplicate what He gives,
or the words He speaks into your heart,
so let the troubles come in and pass
because no harm can come from He who lives.
