When my wav'ring faith, in trials, falter, When His guiding hand I cannot see, Then in wondrous love and tender mercy, Thro' His Word He says to me, My child, just Trust Me, try Me, prove Me, saith the Lord of hosts, and see If a blessing, unmeasured blessing, I will not pour out on thee. 3. I have yielded Him my life forever, All I am, or have, or hope to be; Naught on earth my hold on Him can sever, While I hear Him say to me, My child, just Trust Me, try Me, prove Me, saith the Lord of hosts, and see If a blessing, unmeasured blessing, I will not pour out on thee.

[Refrain] 3 The vine yields not her richest fruit, And tares grow up in place of wheat, God is not pleas’d to have it so; O let us seek His mercy seat. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Heav'ns windows are not open wide]
