How can I make it through another day? My heart is troubled so
It seems the blessings always pass me by and heartaches all I know
The trials in my life, such struggles, how they burden so
No hope lies in my flesh, to him I now must go
As for my God, his way is perfect
His Word has never failed the test
His words of promise cheer me always
All my doubt I now confess
Oh, he's a shield from Satan's fiery darts
He will always be my stay
I will never find a closer friend, He's beside me all the way
Where can I turn when friends reject my love?
And no one seems to care
And all life's troubles come from every side
And strife is in the air
My God's still on the throne
His tender love he longs to share
My hope is now in him, my burdens he helps bear
As for my God, his way is perfect
His Word has never failed the test
His words of promise cheer me always
All my doubt I now confess
Oh he's a shield from Satan's fiery darts
He will always be my stay
I will never find a closer friend, He's beside me all the way
He's beside you all the way
