Meter:   8.7.8.7. Trochiac
Book:   1987 Song Book
Chapter:   Supplement

1.
'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take him at his word,
Just to rest upon his promise,
Just to know: Thus saith the Lord.

Chorus
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!

2.
How I love to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust his cleansing blood,
Just in simple faith to plunge me
'Neath the healing, cleansing flood!

3.
Yes, I've learned to trust in Jesus,
And from sin and self to cease,
Now from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest and joy and peace.

4.
I'm so glad I learned to trust him,
Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend;
And I know that he is with me,
He'll be with me to the end.
