This Song Gets Me

The Chapman Family is amazing. They have survived the most horrifying realty, which is loosing a child. Yet their story is more then that, since they lost theirs in an accident with their older child at fault. How does one move past that and heal?

I used to think, how can I cope? How can I keep moving forward, when I just want the whole world to pause (so I can have time to deal with this, no interruptions)? Yet that is not the reality we have, I have to find a way to keep going and face each day.

 This song explains so well how I feel and how I need to get through this.

Hope it encourages you as well, to trust that God will be with you through anything...even when you can't wait to have a real hug from Him in person!

I Will Trust You

    Steven Curtis Chapman

I don't even wanna breathe right now 

All I wanna do is close my eyes 

But I don't wanna open them again 

Until I'm standing on the other side

  
I don't even wanna be right now 

I don't wanna think another thought 

And I don't wanna feel this pain I feel  

And right now, pain is all I've got

  It feels like it's all I've got, but I know it's not 

No, I know You're all I've got 

And I will trust You, I'll trust You  

Trust You, God, I will 

Even when I don't understand, even then I will say again  

You are my God, and I will trust You

 
God, I'm longing for the day to come  

When this cloudy glass I'm looking through 

Is shattered in a million pieces  

And finally I can just see You

 
God, You know I believe it's true  

I know I will see You  

But until the day I do

  I will trust You, trust You  

Trust You, God, I will  

Even when I don't understand  

Even then I will say again

  You are my God, and I'll trust You 

And with every breath I take  

And for every day that breaks  

I will trust You  

I will trust You 

And when nothing is making sense 

Even then I will say again

  God, I trust You  

I will trust You  

I know Your heart is good  

I know Your love is strong  

And I know Your plans for me  

Are much better than my own

 
So I will trust You, trust You  

I trust You, God, I do 

Even when I can't see the end  

And I will trust You  

I will trust You, I will  

Even when I don't understand  

Even then I will say again

 
I will trust You, I will trust You, I will   

I know Your heart is good, 

Your love is strong,  

Your plans for me are better than my own  

Yeah, Your heart is good  

Your love is strong  

Your plans for me are better than my own  

And I trust You  

You are my God  

And I will trust You
