Trust Parable Lyrics

I know that you want someone to trust

I know you think I'm good to be around

But I don't even trust myself

To stick around for you

I'll tell you I'm your friend

I'll say I'll never leave you

But there's a monster inside of me

That will leave you behind

Don't trust in men, Trust in God

Have no confidence in a friend

Cursed is the man who trusts in man

And makes flesh his strength

It's better to take refuge in the Lord

You might think that I'm your friend

But have no confidence in a friend

For of what account

Is a sinful man like me

Instead, put your trust in God

He is the same, yesterday, today, forever

Leave my faithlessness behind

Go to the one who's faithful

Only God's Word is true

He'll never leave or forsake you

But sinful men are fickle things

And will leave you without a word

I regret the things I've done to who I've loved

But I still cannot trust myself

I will leave you and forsake you

But the Lord your God will not
