Look To Jesus

As troubles come, as they most surely will,
And the road ahead looks all up hill.
When you're at a loss as to what to do,
And you have no answers not even a clue.

Look to Jesus, He knows how high the climb,
And He will get you up and over in His time.
He's there to help you in your need,
If you let Him guide and take the lead.

As hardships come, as they seem to do,
And they're getting the very best of you.
When the pit you're in is waist deep,
And all your trials make you want to weep.

Look to Jesus, He will never let you sink,
He is not as far away as you may think.
He'll get you out of the depression you're in,
For He understands just where you've been.

As burdens come, as they begin to occur,
And in your mind everything's a big blur.
When nothing seems to be really fair,
And you think nobody else will even care.

Look to Jesus, He will give you new sight,
And you will see everything in His light.
For when in your heart you seek His face,
He will give you His peace and eternal grace.

Psalm 27:8
