Representative Text

1 I am trusting Him who died for me,
And I bless His name that grace is free;
How my soul for joy breaks forth and sings,
While I rest in peace beneath His wings.

Refrain:
I am trusting I am trusting
And My soul with holy rapture sings,
I am trusting, I am trusting
While I rest in peace beneath His wings.

2 I am trusting Him, the strong to save,
He has purchased life beyond the grave;
O the pure delight His presence bring,
While I rest in peace beneath His wings. [Refrain]

3 I will trust my Saviour all the way,
To the pearly gates of endless day,
Till a victor crown in heav’n I wear,
Then I’ll praise His name forever there. [Refrain]
