1. Once I was weak with no one near to help me;
All else had failed, my heart filled with dismay,
I cried to Him, because my strength had failed me,
He strengthened me to live by faith each day.

CHORUS

I trust in God, because He never fails me,
I trust in His Word, because it’s always true,
I fell His presence near to reassure me;
He’ll bear me up, and bring me safely through.

2. There will be times when you may feel forsaken,
All earthly friends just helpless stand aside;
But there is One Who promised ne’er to leave you,
He’ll still be there to comfort and to guide.

3. Be not dismayed, remember how He loves you,
Upon the cross He suffered cruel pain;
Those stripes He bore bring healing to your body,
Believe Him now, He’ll heal you and sustain.

4. Take courage, child, His Spirit now will quicken,
Reach out in faith, believe His gracious Word;
Hearken to Him, He speaks to reassure you,
To make you whole, complete in Him, your Lord.

5. Now you have seen the healing touch upon you,
Go forth and tell the world what He has done,
So others too many also share this blessing,
And be made whole and live for Him alone.
