Should We?

Oh yes, we were born free
Of sickness and pain, 
Wandering in the splendor of time;
We grow old, with our family and friends;
Full of love, a peaceful life;
Then, one day we fell ill,
A time of trials,
A time to doubt,
For the disease, exploring conveniently 
Our bodies and minds, not to our delight;
Should we then lose our trust, in Him, the One 
Who created us, without stain?
