First of all, I just want to take a moment to say a huge thank you for the incredible support I received in last week’s competition. Coming second place truly means a lot to me, it’s a reminder that every step, every note, and every effort counts. I’m deeply grateful to everyone who believed in me, voted, and encouraged me throughout. 🙏🏽
A special vote of thanks goes to our amazing judges; 
For this week’s entry, I’ll be performing “Trust in You” by Fred Hammond, a song that holds a very special place in my heart. Every time I listen to or sing this song, I’m reminded of my days in the choir — the rehearsals, the harmonies, and the beautiful journey of learning from so many talented singers. Fred Hammond was one of my greatest inspirations back then, and his music taught me what it truly means to sing from the soul.
“Trust in You” is more than just a song for me; it’s a reminder of faith, surrender, and confidence in God even when things don’t make sense. It reconnects me to that pure, spiritual joy that made me fall in love with singing in the first place.

Lyrics:
There was a time I truly believed
That I could do it on my own
But all that I found at the end of that road is
That concept for me was all wrong
But I found a Savior who turned me around
And He placed His love on me
And I will trust in Him 'til my last heartbeat
Some put their trust in earthly possessions
But in the end it won't bring them through
I will not lean to my own understanding
But with my whole heart here's what I'll do
I will trust (trust in the name of The Lord)
In the name (trust in the name of The Lord)
Of The Lord (Lord I will)
Lord I'll trust in You
I will trust (trust in the name of The Lord)
In the name (trust in the name of The Lord)
Of The Lord (for I know)
He will see me through
Don't put your trust in things that will perish
And ultimately fade away
And even with family and friends all around
You can find yourself alone and dismayed
Cause with their best intentions
They're only human
Believe me when I say
Trust in the Lord
He is faithful and true
Some put their trust in earthly possessions
But in the end it won't bring them through
I will not lean to my own understanding
But with my whole heart here's what I'll do
I will trust (trust in the name of The Lord)
In the name (trust in the name of The Lord)
Of The Lord (Lord I will)
Lord I'll trust in You
I will trust (trust in the name of The Lord)
In the name (trust in the name of The Lord)
Of The Lord (for I know)
He will see me through
