 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.

 

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  O how sweet to trust in Jesus,

    Just to trust His cleansing blood;

    Just in simple faith to plunge me,

    'Neath the healing, cleansing flood.

 

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.

 

 3  Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,

    Just from sin and self to cease;

    Just from Jesus simply taking

    Life, and rest, and joy, and peace.

 

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.

 

 4  I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee,

    Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;

    And I know that Thou art with me,

    Wilt be with me to the end.

 

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.
