'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus
Words: Louisa M. R. Stead · Music: William J. Kirkpatrick · 1882
Verse 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."
Chorus
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust him!
How I've proved him o'er and o'er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
Oh, for grace to trust him more!
Verse 2
Oh, how sweet to trust in Jesus,
just to trust his cleansing blood;
just in simple faith to plunge me
'neath the healing, cleansing flood!
Verse 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.
Verse 4
I'm so glad I learned to trust him,
precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
and I know that he is with me,
will be with me to the end.
