Leave anxiety and look to the light
We gain more joy, and strength increases
As we leave anxiety and look to the light,
When we cast our cares up on the Shepherd
Faith stands still and fears take flight.
‘Tis the humble attitude that pleases God
This the Bible so clearly says,
Never lose your sense of peace and gratitude
There is tremendous power in praise.
Time opens a fresh vista each passing day
Let’s leave within it meaningful deeds,
And as we tread upon life’s ever-changing track
Give thought to the roses and not the weeds.
His strength will sustain through each given hour
Direct your steps at a more gentle pace,
You’ll find although some things have been denied
Something better has taken place.
