Light and Life ‎#58

58. I will trust in my Saviour

1 Tho' the shadows gather o'er my pathway here,
And no sun comes with joyous ray,
In the darkness not an evil will I fear,
For my Saviour is leading the way.

Refrain:
I will trust in my Saviour,
I will trust in my Saviour,
I will trust in my Saviour alway;
He will lead me thro' the night,
By his ever shining light,
I will trust in my Saviour today!

2 In the tempest when the winds around me roll,
And the thunders my heart affright,
Sweetly comes a loving whisper to my soul,
Then the world is all beauty and light. [Refrain]

3 When the chilling blight of death is on my brow,
And the earth passes from my view,
Simply trusting in my Saviour then, as now,
He will lead me in paths ever new. [Refrain]
