When trouble is in my way
I can't tell my night from day
I'm tossed from side to side
Like a ship on a raging tide

* I don't worry and I don't fret
God has never failed me yet
Trouble's coming from time to time
But that's all right I'm not the worrying kind

** Because I, I've got confidence
God is gonna see me through
No matter what the case may be
I know he's gonna fix it for me

** Repeat

Job was sick, oh so long
Till the flesh fell from his bones
His wife, his cattle and children
Everything that he had was gone

But Job he didn't despair
He knew that God still cared
Sleepless days and sleepless nights
Job said: honey, that's all right

** Repeat

** Repeat

Some folks wonder how I smile
Even though I'm going to trial
How can I have a song
Everything is goin' wrong

* Repeat

** Repeat

** Repeat

** Repeat
