‘Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus

by Louisa M. R. Stead (1850–1917)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 524.

Verse 1

’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to take Him at His word; Just to rest upon His promise, And to know, “Thus saith the Lord.”

Refrain

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!

Verse 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!

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 Thee, Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend; And I know that Thou art with me, Wilt be with me to the end.
