When I wonder why bad things happen

And sadness screams from every land

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me trust in Your divine plan

When I simply don’t understand

And my searching consumes me

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me, open my heart to see

When I simply don’t know where to turn

And fear and confusion rule my senses

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me with Your gentle presence

When I think I have a plan for my life

And false pride in self fills my heart

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me know that of Your plan I am only part

When I celebrate what I have done

And hold my gifts high for praise

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me be grateful for all You have given

When I simply do not believe You are here

And doubt that even You can help me

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me, open my eyes to see

When I say "I do believe" in You

And raise my voice in praise and faith

"Help me in my unbelief"

Help me as You always have,

With Your saving grace
