The temptation of that spirit of distrust
Is an enemy to defeat and we must

For it always comes when times are dark
To place an attack upon your aching heart

But God is not a man that He should lie…
For He’s made precious promises to you and I

Promises that He has spoken
Promises that He’s never broken

Promises He has kept
Even as we wept

So whenever distrust tries building a home in your head…
Lift your eyes unto those blessed hills instead

For under the shadow of the Almighty you will find
An abiding peace for your heart and mind.
