I Will Trust

Author: Hattie H. Pierson Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: On my willing lips is a hymn of praise Refrain First Line: I will trust him, fully trust him Lyrics: 1 On my willing lips is a hymn of praise, In my heart a glad new song; For the blessed Lord is my guide and guard, And my refuge safe and strong. Refrain: I will trust him, fully trust him, In his strength go forth undismayed, For his promise faileth never, I will trust, and not be afraid. 2 Tho’ my place may be at the battle’s front, He will be my strength and shield; In his armor clad there is naught to fear, To his might the foe must yield. [Refrain] 3 Tho’ he leadeth me by a path unknown, ‘Tis because along that way Grow the flow’rs of faith and of perfect trust, That will bloom to endless day. [Refrain] 4 By his pow’r upheld, in his love secure, From my heart his praise I sing; And I safely rest, while the days go by, ‘Neath the shadow of his wing. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [On my willing lips is a hymn of praise]
