I’ll Trust the Lord

lyricist: Caroline Shaclkock (1829–1887)
Composer: James Rosecrans, 1890

I’ll trust the Lord with all my heart

His pro­mises are sure;

His grace di­vine

His ten­der­ness

Will ev­er­more en­dure.

My heart I bring to Him

my king

’Tis all that I can give;

His love di­vine I know is mine

In Him alone I live.

How gra­cious is this heav’n­ly friend

And He is ev­er nigh!

My hope and com­fort here be­low

My guide to worlds on high.

How won­drous is His match­less love

His mer­cy

O how free!

The Lord of all the realms ab­ove

He still ab­ides with me.

Enthroned with­in my heart

He fills

My soul with peace and joy;

The sweet as­sur­ances He gives

No pow­er can e’er de­stroy.
