Trusting Wholly in Thy Word

Representative Text

1 Trusting wholly in Thy word,
Master, I would come to Thee;
Thou alone canst make me clean,
Thou from sin canst set me free.

Refrain:
Trusting wholly, Lord, in Thee,
In Thy mercy look on me;
Trusting wholly, Lord, in Thee,
In Thy mercy look on me.

2 Trusting wholly in Thy love,
Love beyond all mortal ken;
Love enduring shame and death,
Love redeeming sinful men. [Refrain]

3 Trusting wholly in Thy grace,
Wondrous, yet divinely free;
All unworthy, yet I come,
Finding righteousness in Thee. [Refrain]
