Lyics

JESUS, I will trust thee,

When across my soul,

Like a fearful tempest,

Doubts and fears shall roll.

When the tempter cometh,

Surely he will flee

When I utter, "Jesus,

I am trusting thee!"



Jesus, I will trust thee;

There is none beside;

In thine arms of mercy

I will ever hide;

And for my acceptance,

This my only pleas-

Jesus died for sinners,

Jesus died for me.



Jesus, I will trust thee;

Trust thee even now;

Trust thee when the death-dew

Gathers on my brow;

Trust thee in the sunshine,

Trust thee in the shade;

With thy precious shelter,

I am not afraid.
