Representative Text

1 Trusting, my Lord, in Thee,
Trusting in Thee;
Sunshine and storm alike
Calmly I see.
Peaceful my life shall be,
Happy my heart and free,
Trusting, my Lord, in Thee,
Trusting in Thee.

2 Leaning, my Lord, on Thee,
Leaning on Thee!
Make Thou Thy strength divine
Perfect in me!
So shall my weakness be,
Refuge and strength to me,
Leaning, my Lord, on Thee,
Leaning on Thee.

3 Working, my Lord, for Thee,
Working for Thee;
Telling in grateful praise
Thy love for me.
So would I joyfully
Spend all my life for Thee—
Working, my Lord, for Thee,
Working for Thee.
