Find Comfort

"Find comfort in my arms, small child,
Find comfort," I heard him say.
"I've brought you here and I'll guide you through-
Do not be afraid."

I wonder if when He spoke those words to Joseph,
If Joseph were as nervous as I,
To face the world, to face reality...
And trust that our God is a God of the impossible!

"Do not be afraid" my God tells me, "Trust me-
Hold on to me"-
And with my eyes squeezed tight,
I let go of my might
I open my arms, I surrender.
I let God take control
And let him write my story.
My God- I know you will get me through-
I will not be afraid.

Joseph was young - still a kid,
Taking on responsibilities I could never imagine.
He obeyed the Lord's voice - probably
More scared than I'll ever be.
And as I sit here nervous of what may come,
I hear Him say,
"Find comfort in my arms, small child,
Find comfort-
I've brought you here and I'll guide you through.
Do not be afraid."
