‘Trust in God we cannot see' – a hymn of faith by Marjorie Dobson
1 Trust in a God we cannot see
turns reason inside out.
Faith is a rough and winding road
with stumbling blocks of doubt.
2 We follow where we think God leads,
although the road seems strange:
but faith demands an open mind
and willingness to change.
3 When crisis clouds of doubt disturb
and shake our faith with fear,
it can be hard to trust that God
will, one day, make things clear.
4 Yet when God’s call breaks through again,
persistent as before,
the choice is plain: ignore, stagnate,
or fire our faith once more.
Marjorie Dobson (born 1940)
