Lyrics
Chorus
I'm gonna trust in God
I'm gonna trust in Jesus
Without shame and without fear
I'm gonna fix my eyes
On the hope of glory
For His day is drawing near
Verse 2
How great is the love of God
How steady is His hand
To guide me through this world
And though I am weak in Him I stand
And you will hear me say today
In faith I'm gonna trust in God
Verse 3
Now when the cares of life
Seem overwhelming
And my heart is sinking down
I'm gonna lift my hands
To the One who'll help me
To the One who holds my crown

Meaning & Inspiration
Gonna Trust in God is a direct confession of confidence amid weakness and pressure. The chorus joins trust in God with trust in Jesus, freedom from shame and fear, and attention fixed on the coming hope of glory. Rather than presenting faith as self-reliance, the verses describe a steady divine hand that guides through the world. Human weakness becomes the setting in which dependence on God is openly declared.
The final verse brings that confession into moments when ordinary cares feel overwhelming and the heart sinks. Lifted hands answer anxiety with prayer and worship, directed toward the one who helps and preserves the promised crown. Hebrews 12:2 closely supports the call to fix the eyes on Jesus, while Psalm 55:22 speaks of casting burdens on the Lord and receiving sustaining help. The song holds present trouble beside future hope, making trust an active choice expressed without shame, even before difficult circumstances have changed.
