Brook Benton - The Lost Penny lyrics

I was walking down the street In a little old country town I saw a rusty penny Half buried in the ground As I reached down to pick it up I saw beneath the rust These words, just barely visible In God we trust I held it for a moment Then suddenly, I knew What God in all his wisdom Would have me say and do He used this worthless penny To make me understand That life is not worthing living Without the master's hand [Chorus:] Oh, in God we trust In God we trust We're lost just like this penny Unless in God we trust And then, I heard a Still small voice whispering Within me, very clear Be still and know that I am God And I'm always near When all your dreams come Tumbling around you in the dust Remember this lost penny And place in me, your trust [Repeat chorus 2x]
