I Will Trust in the Lord

Lord

in Thee my hope and trust are stayed

To the rock of Thy sal­va­tion cling;

To be whol­ly Thine I’ve oft­en prayed

And Thy prais­es are the songs I’ll sing.

I am trust­ing in the Lord

And I know that He is nigh;

And by trust­ing we can on­ly see

The bless­èd land

And gain a home on high.

Lord

in trust­ing Thee I’ll find re­lief

From the tri­als here I’m bound to bear;

Even in my sor­row and my grief

Joy from Heav­en by Thy grace I’ll share.

Sinful flesh may suf­fer

crave and pine

Even groan be­neath its earth­ly load;

Yet a joy in my Re­deem­er find

In the end a safe and sure abode.

There my joys shall ev­er free­ly flow

With the ran­somed of Thy king­dom shine;

All be­cause I wor­shiped Thee be­low

A re­ward in Heav­en I shall find.
