O For Grace To Trust Him More




 
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, 
	and to take him at his word; 
	just to rest upon his promise, 
	and 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! 

	O how sweet to trust in Jesus, 
	just to trust his cleansing blood; 
	and in simple faith to plunge me 
	neath the healing, cleansing flood! 
	

	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. 
	
	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.
