Story

This song is a reflection of the words of Psalm 31 and was written for a youth camp in Adelaide.

Life can be stressful and anxiety can easily take a grip of things. But it's times like these that we need to find security in God. He knows what the future holds for us. Sometimes that future is grey and gloomy. Sometimes it is bright and sunny. We know that trusting in God will get us through whatever the future holds. Our times are in God's hands.

There is no need for anxiety and worry about the uncertainties of what lies ahead. God knows what is next and will be with us through the ups and downs.

Lyrics

Verse 1
-------
In you, O LORD, do we take refuge
Let us never, be put to shame
In your righteousness, deliver us
may you guide and lead us, for your name's sake

Chorus
------
Our times are in your hand, Our God,
Help us know your plan
Help us understand your will
Make your face shine down on us
For your mercy's sake
Let us not be shamed
But put our trust in you

Verse 2
-------
In you, O LORD, We will rejoice,
for you heard us, and saw our pain
In the shelter of, your presence LORD
there You keep us safely, from the enemy

Bridge
------
The righteous won't be shaken
For you are their salvation
Blessed is the one who trust in you
Love the LORD his saints
For he preserves the faithful
Be strong as you wait for the LORD
