Trust and obey

lyricist: John Henry Sammis
Composer: Daniel Brink Towner

When we walk with the Lord

In the light of His Word

What a glory He sheds on our way;

While we do His good will

He abides with us still

And with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey

For there’s no other way

To be happy in Jesus

But to trust and obey.

Not a shadow can rise

Not a cloud in the skies

But His smile quickly drives it away;

Not a doubt or a fear

Not a sigh or a tear

Can abide while we trust and obey.

Not a burden we bear

Not a sorrow we share

But our toil He doth richly repay;

Not a grief or a loss

Not a frown or a cross

But is blest if we trust and obey.

But we never can prove

The delights of His love

Until all on the altar we lay;

For the favor He shows

And the joy He bestows

Are for them who will trust and obey.

Then in fellowship sweet

We will sit at His feet

Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;

What He says we will do;

Where He sends

we will go

Never fear

only trust and obey.
