689. Simply trusting every day

1 Simply trusting every day,
trusting through a stormy way,
even when my faith is small,
trusting Jesus, that is all.

Refrain:
Trusting as the moments fly,
trusting as the days go by;
trusting him whate'er befall,
trusting Jesus, that is all.

2 Brightly doth his Spirit shine
into this poor heart of mine;
while he leads I cannot fall,
trusting Jesus, that is all. [Refrain]

3 Singing, if my way be clear,
praying, if the path be drear,
if in danger for him call,
trusting Jesus, that is all. [Refrain]

4 Trusting him while life shall last,
trusting him till earth be past,
till within the jasper wall,
trusting Jesus, that is all. [Refrain]
