037 It Hurts To Not be Trusted

Download song

When you’re a trustworthy man
With a trustworthy heart
But they don’t understand
And they doubt that you are

Well it hurts
Oh, it hurts
It hurts to not be trusted
And it hurts to feel accused
It hurts to see the ones you love
Lose their faith in you

Well He’s a trustworthy man
With a trustworthy heart
But we don’t understand
And our trust falls apart

Well it hurts
Oh, it hurts
Cuz it hurts to not be trusted
And it hurts to feel accused
It hurts to see the ones you love
Lose their faith in you

And it hurts to see them suffer
As they seek another source
Running in to self destruction
Cuz the self is trusted more
Oh it hurts to see them hurting
When if only they would trust
They would find a place of refuge
In your overwhelming love

We’d find a place of refuge
In Your overwhelming love
