| Tune: | ['Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus] |
| Composer: | Wm. J. Kirkpatrick |
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."
Chorus:
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him;
How I've prov'd 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. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus]
4 I'm so glad I learn'd to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end. [Chorus}
