Trust Me

Aladdin scaled down the walls

Of the Arabian palace

To the top tower of Jasmine’s room

On a magic carpet he offered his hand

But as she was afraid

To take this strange ride

And to step out of her palace walls

He asked the princess he adores

Chorus:

Trust me, do you trust me?

I can free you from these walls

And show you a whole new world

If you trust me, do you trust me?

I can open up your eyes

To see the indescribable

If you just take my hand, & trust me

The King of kings is waiting at my balcony

Patiently knocking on my door

On His carpet embroidered

With love & faith

He offers His hand

But as I am afraid

To step out of my comfort zone

He asks the children He adores

The Story of How This Song Came About:

I was inspired by Steven Curtis Chapman, a Christian song writer who uses history and brilliant imageries to describe the experiences of his relationship with God. Being a fan of Aladdin, I tried to think of a connection. I realized in my relationship with God, trust (or faith) is one thing that I find very difficult to have at times. In fact, besides love, I think this is the most important ingredient for all relationship. Without trust, a relationship cannot be taken to a deeper level just like without the magic carpet, Aladdin cannot show Jasmine his world. I knew it was something God was constantly drilling into me. I could see from my experiences that this was a lesson God wants me to learn. Some day, I hope to be able to say that I have a faith that can move mountains (Matthew 17:20).

Ok, cs still finds it important to continue to trust His Father after close to 7 years of following HIM. Need to listen to this song for at least 100 times daily!
