Resting On You

I like to think I’m strong enough

To make it on my own,
That I can face what the world brings
And do it all alone.
I tell myself I’m tough enough
That I can fight it through,
And come what may I’ll find a way
To do what I must do.
 
But I’ve found that it’s arrogance
That makes me feel that way,
For when I’ve done all I can do
I’m still lost and astray.
It’s only when I rest on You
That I begin to see
I truly can face what life brings
If You are holding me.
