I’ll Trust in Thee

lyricist: John Lawley, 1922
Composer: Charles Purday, 1857

Though thun­ders roll and dark­ened be the sky

I’ll trust in Thee!

Though joys may fade and pros­pects droop and die

I’ll trust in Thee!

No light may shine upon life’s rug­ged way

Sufficient is Thy grace from day to day.

I’m not out­side Thy pro­vi­den­tial care

I’ll trust in Thee!

I’ll walk by faith Thy chos­en cross to bear

I’ll trust in Thee!

Thy will and wish I know are for the best

This gives to me abun­dant peace and rest.

Thy word is sure

Thy pro­mise nev­er fails

I’ll trust in Thee!

A hid­ing-place Thou art when Hell as­sails

I’ll trust in Thee!

I con­quer all while hid­ing ’neath Thy wing

And in the storm sweet songs of tri­umph sing.

I’m press­ing on to­wards my home in Heav’n

I’ll trust in Thee!

Where crowns of life to faith­ful ones are giv’n

I’ll trust in Thee!

This hope is mine

through Je­sus cru­ci­fied

And all through grace I shall be glo­ri­fied.
