I don’t know the end,
the path ahead, unclear,
but I will trust You, God,
for You are always near.
In the silence, or the storm,
when shadows seem to press,
I’ll walk in faith, not by sight,
and trust You—nevertheless.

When doubt whispers lies,
and fear clouds my view,
I’ll cling to all You’ve promised,
for I know Your word is true.
When the world around me shifts,
and I’m tempted to digress,
I’ll anchor in Your love, oh God,
and hold firm—nevertheless.

For You are the beginning,
the faithful, guiding light,
Though now I see through glass, darkly
I know You’ll make it all, right.
In victories and trials,
in joy and deep distress,
I’ll lift my eyes to heaven,
and praise You—nevertheless.

So even in the tarrying,
when answers seem delayed,
I’ll rest within Your timing—
I’ll no longer be afraid.
I surrender all my striving,
and leave behind the guess,
I’ll follow where You lead me,
Lord, trusting—nevertheless.
