Life’s events
stun and surprise us
some lovely and wonderful
others filled with sadness
Though we search and try
with all of our might
questions remain
with no answers in sight
So we cast our burdens
Let Him carry us through
for only He knows best
in everything we do
We watch our worries
fall to the floor
and feel freedom at last
with no thoughts at war
Our minds are at ease now
a breath of fresh air
Moving forward again
In our pocket, a prayer
