Why Don't We Trust?

Why don't we trust when we know there is a way out?
Why don't we trust when all the lights go out?
Why don't we trust when we know there's a stronger Hand
Holding together the earth, the seas and the clouds?

Why don't we live like we're taken care off
Singing, smiling - and dancing to the One
Who's there when lifes' curves throw us off?
Isn't there a time for everything under the sun?

Why don't we render control to the One
Who sits on His throne only to summon
the angels, the saints, the rulers, even the waves
To the service and aid of his needy ones?

Why do we fear to break our human arms
And believe that there will never be any harm
When we lay the reins at his Holy feet
And break the bonds of fear and charms?

Why do we believe that we have to control
Every minute, every second of our days
Lest the night arrives and our plans fall
Crashing and taking with them our all?

Why don't we ever release our planning
- And the jamming - and the damning,
To the One who only wants you to trust
While he for us ensures a safe landing?

For when I do let Him play in time,
He orchestrates all events and times
To a beautiful symphony that becomes mine,
For he is always faithful to keep time.

Yet, I ask - Why don't I trust
- All the time?
