Just to take Him at His word,
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know: "Thus saith the Lord."

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I've proved Him o'er and o'er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!

Just to trust His cleansing blood,
Just in simple faith to plunge me
'Neath the healing, cleansing flood! [Refrain]

Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest and joy and peace. [Refrain]

And I know that He is with me,
Will be with me to the end. [Refrain] Topics: Assurance; Christ Atonement, Crucifixion, Suffering and Death; Christ Friend; Faith and Hope; Testimony and Praise; Trust Used With Tune: TRUST IN JESUS
