I Am Learning, Lord
 
My life has taken many falls
And tumbles 'long the way.
The many trials have left me
In a sure state of dismay.

 For with each trial, I tried alone
To tend, and soothe, and mend,
Instead of giving them to God -
And on Him just depend...
 
But I am learning, Lord.
 
It seems that I was determined
To carry all the load;
I longed for smoother pathways
Yet I walked a rocky road.

Little did I understand -
God waited patiently
To pave a new beginning
With a better life for me...
 
But I am learning, Lord.
 
It took a real disaster
To bring me to my knees;
To finally call upon the Lord
And say, "God help me please."
 
He can with no delaying
With strong arms that could hold -
The weight of all my burdens;
He gladly took the load.
 
And I am learning, Lord.
 
What a needless cross I carried,
All because I could not see -
What a friend I have in Jesus,
And the love He has for me.

 Peace I find when troubles hover,
Though' the outcome is unknown,
For if yet the road is rocky,
I won't walk it all alone...
 
For I am learning, Lord.
