Complete, utter, childlike trust
vulnerable and dependent
so must we be, to understand his love
his grace, his gift of salvation
No works, nothing we can do
able to bring us back to God
from our darkness, sin
Trust in God alone
taking his guiding hand
following the shepherd
through the valleys, the shadows
into the green fields, still waters
our eternal home
