I Choose to Trust

I choose to trust Your plan, O Lord,
Whatever it may be,
Whatever it may seem to cost
However dear to me.

I don’t demand to see your plan
And know what You will do,
I will not try to judge Your ways –
I can’t examine You.

Instead I bow in humble love
Before Your wisdom’s skill
Committed to obey Your plan
And trust Your perfect will.

How sweet to know Your plan is best
Not just for honor’s sake
But for my good which You ensure
In all the plans You make!

I love You, Lord, and I will trust
Your plan for me today –
Both when I see and when I don’t
I’ll praise You and obey.
