1. Brother, is your face toward the Canaan of rest?
Trust in the promise of the Savior;
Sister, are you bound for the home of the blest?
Trust in the promise of thy Lord.

Refrain
He will walk beside us, in His mercy hide us;
With His eye He’ll guide us, trust in Him.
Yes, we’ll trust in Jesus. Yes, we’ll trust in Jesus.
He’ll forsake us never, trust in Him.

2. Brother, is your faith looking upward today?
Trust in the promise of the Savior.
Sister, is the light shining bright on your way?
Trust in the promise of thy Lord. [Refrain]

3. Brother, persevere and be firm to the last,
Trust in the promise of the Savior;
Sister, you shall rest when your labor is past,
Trust in the promise of thy Lord. [Refrain]
