God Loves It When We Trust Him

God loves it when we trust Him
With simple, childlike faith
That doesn’t doubt or worry
But rests in loving grace.

He loves it when our actions
And countenance display
A confident assurance
That He’ll direct our way.

He loves a joyful spirit
That cannot see ahead
But holds to every promise
The Lord Himself has said.

He loves our quiet watching
For what His hand will do
That says, “The Lord’s been faithful –
He always brings me through.”

He loves a heart that’s peaceful
When facing flood and flame –
A living song of worship
That magnifies His Name.

He loves it when we trust Him
Not just for life above
But through the storms, believing
His tender care and love.
