Don't Worry

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Why so troubled O my soul
For what the Lord has planned?

Would He still have chosen you
If you were not His man?

Why should you be worried
When you’re in the right position?

Just be still and know He’s God
No matter your condition!

He only wants what’s good for you
So, let Him have His way!

And you will be much better off
Upon His judgment day!

The Lord is on His throne!
