Take Your Hand

You have asked me again,
To take Your hand.
But I tremble too much,
Don't know if I can.

You say trust Me,
With all your heart.
But I'm so afraid,
Falling apart.

You say all things,
Will pass away.
I know it's not forever,
It won't stay.

You ask me to believe,
It will all work out.
But all I can do,
Is cry and doubt.

You say I'm Your child,
And You love me.
But these tear filled eyes,
Can not see.

You ask me to just,
Reach up my hand.
Finally trembling,
I understand.
