ENGLISH LYRICS: Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus

If thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God. John.11:40

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.

   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. O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
   Just to trust His cleansing blood;
   Just in simple faith to plunge me
   'Neath the healing, cleansing flood!

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.

4. I'm so glad I learn'd to trust Thee
   Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend;
   And I know that Thou art with me,
   Wilt be with me to the end.

Amen.
