Smile

Some things are hard to understand

But we can rest with them in His hand

When we can't see just where to go

He guides in ways we don't even know

At times like these, His peace He gives

That we may know in our hearts He lives

Now rest in Him, don't be dismayed

You know your life at His feet is laid

So smile for me, and do not be afraid

We each are formed as vessels of

The careful work of our Father's love

These earthen jars by grace contain

The treasure of all eternal gain

We wonder why such fragile ware

The power of God and His glory bear

But trust in Him for he has made

It sure to stand, His foundation laid

So smile for me, and do not be afraid

Sometimes we sink in faith so small

We wonder how God could love us at all

But on great faith love does not depend

No matter what, He'll always be your friend

But Jesus said, "if you believe

Ask in My name and you shall receive"

Let's bow our heads as Jesus prayed

And ask of Him, He will not upbraid

So smile for me, and do not be afraid
