Tune:[Happy, Savior, should we be]
Composer:G. F. R.

130. Happy Should we Be

1 Happy, Savior, should we be
If we could but trust in thee;
Trust thy wisdom e’er to guide,
Trust thy goodness to provide.

Refrain:
Happy, yes, most happy we,
If we could but trust in thee,
Trust thy mighty love and power
Every day and every hour.

2 Trust in joy and trust in grief,
Trust thy promise for relief;
Trust thy blood to cleanse each soul,
Trust thy grace to make it whole. [Refrain]

3 Trust in sickness, trust in health;
Trust in poverty and wealth;
Trust thee as the only light,
In the darkest hour of night. [Refrain]
