He's There Poem by Jana Koehn

The future's uncertain, Lord,
I don't know the way.
I struggle with many a burden,
And worry and pray.

I want to leave it with You,
But then I struggle again.
And I cry and say, 'Take it,
I want your peace to come in! '

I want to do something,
But you just say 'Wait.
Give me your burdens,
Before it's too late! '

'I'll give you the peace,
That your soul longs for,
If you'll only let go,
And trust; nothing more.'

So I give Him my burdens,
And sweet peace fills my soul.
And I know when I need Him,
He's there and in control.
