Though the fig tree does not blossom and no fruit is on the vine Yet I will trust you Yet I will trust you Though the cattle stalls are empty and the sheep starve on the hill your best friend may desert you, but your Shepherd never will Though the fig tree does not blossom and no fruit is on the vine Yet I will trust you Yet I will trust you Though the well is black with mildew and the grain is white with mold the Shepherd's voice will lead you to the waters deep and cold Though the fig tree does not blossom and no fruit is on the vine Yet I will trust you Yet I will trust you Though the sun destroys the wheat fields and the rains refuse to fall the Shepherd's hands will lift you on his shoulders strong and tall and wrap you safely in his shawl he will never let you fall Threads may come unraveled, but he will weave and tie them all.

It’s hard to hear that I need saving, it’s hard to hear It’s hard to hear that I need saving, I’d rather hear that I am perfect just the way I am there isn’t any master plan, and the only sin is not to follow what I feel It’s hard to hear we’re in a battle, it’s hard to hear It’s hard to hear we’re in a battle, I’d rather hear that there’s no hell, no heaven after death Just the body and the breath and the devil’s just as real as you let him be and God’s the deepest part of you and me It’s hard to say, “I’ll follow Jesus”, it’s hard to say I’d like to say, “I’ll follow Jesus”, but sometimes his words just make my hair stand up on end I’ve spent a lifetime pleasing friends and looking for a life that pleases me Working for a kingdom I can see Preacher says a broken bone if it grows together wrong must be broken and re-set to truly heal I can hear his aching groans echo in this heart of stone and I offer up a prayer from where I kneel When I stand again, set me on a path that’s real! It’s so hard to say “I’m sorry”, it’s hard to say It’s so hard to say “I’m sorry”, it’s hard to say It’s so hard to say “I’m sorry”, it’s easier to say I was just made this way don’t tell me that I’ve gone astray and everything behind me turns to gray and everything inside me turns to gray and all that lies before me turns to gray until I say the hardest thing to say
