  1. 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 says 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. 2O 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. 3Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,Just from sin and self to cease,Just from Jesus simply takingLife 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. 4I’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!
