Trusting in Jesus (Stanton)

Composer: Frederick Stanton, 1888

Tenderly call­eth the Sav­ior

Calling your heart to in­cline;

Lovingly

plead­ing­ly call­ing

Come

lost one

now be Mine.

Now I am trust­ing in Je­sus

Safely in Him to abide;

Knowing His grace is suf­fi­cient

Trusting what­ev­er be­tide.

Pathways with clouds may be co­vered

Purpose and work be un­seen;

Steps will be bright­ly il­lum­ined

Firm on His love if we lean.

Warm in the heart burns the Spir­it

Happiness heav’n­ly

di­vine;

Toil grows so light in Thy bless­ing

Service so pre­cious is Thine.

Jesus His yoke doth make ea­sy

Charming us sweet­ly to toil;

Giving us strength in our la­bor

Sowing in ev­ery soil.

Time for our la­bor is short­en­ing;

Harvest-day soon we’ll be­hold;

Moments of wea­ri­ness end­ing

Treasures and sheaves to un­fold.
