Trusting in Jesus

Trusting in Jesus! How blest to abide With Jesus who suffered, with Jesus who died; His love so amazing, so boundless His grace, The vilest may find in His kingdom a place.

Chorus

Trusting in Jesus, trusting in Jesus, Fearing nought that may oppose— Trusting in Jesus.

Trusting in Jesus! Though nature is weak, From Him I shall gather the strength that I seek; His Spirit will guide me, His arm will defend, No ill can befall while on Him I depend.

Chorus

Trusting in Jesus, trusting in Jesus, Fearing nought that may oppose— Trusting in Jesus.

Trusting in Jesus! What comfort it gives, The blessed assurance that Jesus still lives! O’er sin and the grave as a victor He reigns, For me still is pleading, my cause still maintains.

Chorus

Trusting in Jesus, trusting in Jesus, Fearing nought that may oppose— Trusting in Jesus.

Verse 4

Trusting in Jesus! Confiding in Him, The shadows of earth ne’er my pathway shall dim; I’ll follow the footsteps of Him that I love, Mine eyes shall behold Him ‘mid glories above.

Chorus

Trusting in Jesus, trusting in Jesus, Fearing nought that may oppose— Trusting in Jesus.
