14. What Is Faith?

1 What is faith? it is believing
That God’s promises are true,
Gladly taking what He offers,
Knowing that it is for you.

Refrain:
‘Tis just to take Him at His word,
Simply take Him at His word, that is faith;
‘Tis just to trust Him and receive Him,
And then to rest on what He saith.

2 What is faith? ‘tis simply trusting,
Leaning on the Mighty One,
Putting all your weight upon Him,
Yielding all to Him alone. [Refrain]

3 What is trust? ‘tis faith relying
On the One who never fails,
Well assured that “He is able,”
That His blood for sin avails. [Refrain]

4 What is rest? ‘tis faith reclining
In the Everlasting arms,
Doubts removed, and burdens banished,
Perfect peace amid alarms. [Refrain]
