TEN THOUSAND

My thousand worries
Keep weighing me down
I count another ten thousand troubles
And my head keeps spinning around
I add another ten thousand cares
And Lord, I don’t feel you around

Then I hear His gentle voice…

Ten thousand times as sweet
Than any honeycomb you might eat
Soothing on my aching heart
Like we were never meant to be apart

My Child, ten thousand times I care
Just be still and know I am always there
Cast your ten thousand worries on me
Then peaceful and joyful all your days will be
