Let-Go

Let Go And Let God

As children bring their broken toys
With tears for us to mend
I brought my broken dreams to God
Because He is my friend
But instead of leaving Him
In peace to work alone
I hung around and tried to help
With ways that were my own
At last I snatched them back again and cried
How can You be so slow
My child, He said, What could I do
You never did let go

If we would turn all our problems over to the Lord, He is able and willing to take care of them of us. However, we must learn to be patient,
and let God work in His time and not our own.

Although it sometimes seems to us
Our prayers have not been heard
God always knows our every need
Without a single word

And He will not forsake us
Even though the way is steep
For He is always near us
A tender watch to keep

And in good times He'll answer us
And in His love He'll send
Greater things than we have asked
And blessings without end

So though we do not understand
Why trouble comes to man
Can we not be contented
Just to know it's God's plan
