Author: John H. Sammis Hymnal: The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration #349 (1986) Meter: 6.6.9 D with refrain Topics: Fellowship with Christ First Line: When we walk with the Lord Refrain First Line: Trust and obey, for there's no other way Lyrics: 1 When we walk with the Lord
in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.
Refrain:
Trust and obey,
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
2 Not a shadow can rise,
not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
not a sigh nor a tear
Can abide while we trust and obey. [Refrain]
3 Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
not a frown nor a cross
But is blessed if we trust and obey. [Refrain]
4 But we never can prove
the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
and the joy He bestows
Are for them who will trust and obey. [Refrain]
5 Then in fellowship sweet
we will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do,
where He sends we will go -
Never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain] Tune Title: TRUST AND OBEY
