Jesus I will trust Thee, trust Thee, with my soul
Meter: 11.11.11.11.
Scripture: II Tim.1:12
Jesus I will trust Thee, trust Thee, with my soul;
Guilty, lost and helpless. Thou canst make me whole,
There is none in heaven or on earth like Thee:
Thou hast died for sinners- therefore Lord, for me.
Jesus, I may trust Thee, name of matchless worth,
Spoken by the angel at Thy wondrous birth;
Written, and for ever, on Thy cross of shame,
Sinners read and worship, trusting in that name.
Jesus, I must trust Thee, pondering Thy ways,
Full of love and mercy all Thine earthly days:
Sinners gathered round Thee, lepers sought Thy face-
None too vile or loathsome for a Saviours grace.
Jesus, I can trust Thee, trust Thy written word,
Though Thy voice of pity I have never heard
When Thy Spirit teacheth to my taste how sweet
Only may I hearken, sitting at Thy feet.
Jesus, I do trust Thee, trust without a doubt;
Whosoever cometh, Thou will not cast out;
Faithful is Thy promise, precious is Thy blood;
These my soul's salvation, Thou my Saviour God.
