ALBUM: Amazing Power 'n' Prayers

Don't believe I care to share the reason why I very sadly wrote this song on the floor, with a couple of cats wandering around my guitar wondering why I wasn't happily petting them.. Just this: Once more God inspired a song in minutes that was recorded and on the world wide web within a single day.
But then He easily created all the cats & critters in a day.... :)

LYRICS
1
Things that I love keep getting taken away.
That's NOT a complaint, LORD, just observation.
My heart is heavy as once more it seems
that something else I love in life may soon disappear.
CHORUS
LORD God, help me TRUST You, despite all my loss.
In my head, I sorrow. In my heart I trust.
It is SIMPLE LOGIC --- You Who sent Jesus to
save us from eternal loss ARE a God we can trust!
2
Though the fig tree of blessings for me don't blossom,
and though failure seems to be the fruit of my work,
Yet will I CHOOSE to rejoice in The LORD. I'll
joy in the LORD God of my saving salvation!
CHORUS
LORD God, help me TRUST You, despite all my loss.
In my head, I sorrow. In my heart I trust.
It is SIMPLE LOGIC --- You Who sent Jesus to
save us from eternal loss ARE a God we can trust!
3
God, the LORD is my strength and makes me walk high hills. Yet
God gives me feet swift to run and climb like deer.
Therefore shall I CHOOSE to rejoice in The LORD. I'll
joy in the LORD God of my saving salvation!
CHORUS
LORD God, help me TRUST You, despite all my loss.
In my head, I sorrow. In my heart I trust.

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
Habakkuk's prayer after hearing that invaders are coming to his land:
"Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls--
He will make my feet like deer's feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills.
To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments."
--Habakkuk 3, at the end
"Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls--
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer's feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills.
To the Chief Musician. With my stringed instruments."
--Habakkuk 3, at the end
