Tune: | ['Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus] |
Composer: | William J. Kirkpatrick (1838-1921) |
1 ’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His word.
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know, “Thus saith the Lord.”
Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!
2 O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood.
Just in simple faith to plunge me
’Neath the healing, cleansing flood! [Refrain]
3 Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just from sin and self to cease.
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest and joy and peace. [Refrain]
4 I’m so glad I learned to trust thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end. [Refrain]
