Trusting Jesus

Spiritual Lessons

Trusting Jesus

Trusting Jesus all the way

While the dawn still breaks the day.

Heavy chains confining, what weary burdens I see,
Yet, such peace abiding, as I wait on Thee.

Trusting Jesus to keep me near

Casting away, all thoughts of fear.

Pressing towards that high calling in God,

Oh what blessedness! This path I trod.

Trusting Jesus to do His will

By His grace, each duty fulfill.

Obedient while Time still holds,

Watching His plans toward me unfold.

Trusting Jesus, my cares are lost

His desires with mine, no longer crossed.

Leaving behind, what others may see,

What Christ requires is who I will be.

Trusting Jesus, onward I go

Over high mountains and valleys low.

What evil befall me, whatever cross I bear,

His glory be praised, His power declare! 

Trusting Jesus with all I hold dear

Believing His love, I've no reason to fear.

All I've lost, can only be counted gain,

And all I've gained, but loss, for His dear name.

Trusting Jesus to an expected end

Wherever He leads me, however He sends.

My soul asleep, my heart, awake!

Let me never, no never, my Jesus forsake!
