Trusting

by Kate Ulmer

Trusting in Jesus I find sweet rest,
Just simply trusting, O how I am blest;
Never a danger and never a fear,
Now can affright me since Jesus is near.

Trusting when rough seems the path to my feet,
Trusting when life is with gladness replete;
Trusting tho' friends all forsake here below,
Still my Redeemer doth love me I know.

Trusting for guidance where I cannot see,
Knowing His wisdom sufficient for me;
Trusting in weakness His wonderful might,
Looking in darkness to Him for the light.

Trusting, yes trusting will unto the end,
Trusting in Him my unchangeable friend;
Trusting until with the ransomed above,
Singing the praise of His wonderful love.

Chorus

Trusting in Jesus by night and by day,
O, how his presence illumines my way;
Knowing He liveth and carter for me,
Why should my heart ever sorrowful be?
