You see, my needs aren't
always exactly what I think,
but He knows the future and
He knows what's best for me.

He gives me satisfaction
in knowing I've done my part,
and He's always there beside me
when I'm going through a storm.

Life is full of storms and
they're painful at times,
but it's so reassuring
to know Jesus is my guide.

He didn't say it would be easy,
but He said He'd never leave.
He'll be with us in the storm
and lead us through to victory.

Our time on earth is short
and we need to do our best
to round up souls for God,
Jesus gave His life for this.
