Song Story:   LYRICS
    These basic lyrics were sketched into my Leather Journal #23 (I didn't count those in the spiral cardboard journals – just dated them).  One day four months later, I was praying about how it seemed NOTHING that  I did was accomplishing anything. 

     Too weary to write any more, I started flipping into the older journal to see if I had any more songs ready to type up and record. I found these, and wrote the music on guitar in 15   minutes. Don't know if it will “accomplish anything” … but maybe it will give peace to someone.  As it did  for me.

Song Story:  MUSIC
    It took a long time after finishing the lyrics set before I had the music, even though I had this good (I think) easy to remember melody for encouraging ourselves... because the good easy to remember melody by itself was boring.
        I kept praying that the LORD would help me improve the music...
       That I was said because “average” music does NOT honor Him, so I didn't feel
this was good enough....  
        I pray that He finds pleasure in this “final result” of a song  about one of
the most encouraging verses in His Book of Proverbs:
Dedicated to our Trustworthy God, 7 Nov 2013, renewed 10 Apr 2014

LYRICS
Part 1,  Verse 1
God is with me ALL the way: through this trial, through this pain.
Some well-meaning people say: “JUST HOLD ON” ............
Thanks, but God's simple Way is best:
Forget trying in human strength!
Just LET GO! LET GOD HOLD on to us .......
Just LET GO! LET GOD HOLD      
          on to us,   who He loves!

Part 1,  Verse 2
When I'm fearful and confused, people tell me what to do.
Some well-meaning Christians say: “JUST HAVE FAITH” ............
Thanks, but God's simple Way is best:
Forget trying in human strength!
Just LET GO! LET GOD HOLD on to us .......
Just LET GO! LET GOD HOLD on to us, who He loves!

Part 2,   Chorus 1
Trust LORD God with ALL your heart, ALL your soul, ALL your mind!
Proverbs 3: 5 and 6 ... God teaches His Promise.
God loves you more than you do.
God loves you more than you do.
God loves you more than you do!
 
Part 2,   Chorus 2
Trust LORD God with ALL your heart. Lean on Him. NOT on you.
Proverbs 3: 5 and 6 ... In all your ways, call to Him!
God cares and He WILL lead you.
God cares and He WILL lead you.
God cares and He WILL lead you.

Part 2,   Chorus 3
When I'm slipping DOWN my rope, terrified, losing hope,
sweat running down -- CAN'T hold on, Proverbs 3 gives me great hope!
When I LET GO, God HOLDS ME.
When I LET GO, God HOLDS ME.
When I LET GO,  God HOLDS ME.
======================================
God's SUPPORTING WORDS:

Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, & lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil.
8 It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones.
