Trusting in the Promise (Hartzler)

lyricist: Henry Hartzler, 1878
Composer: Edmund Lorenz

I have found re­pose for my wea­ry soul

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

And a har­bor safe when the bil­lows roll

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.

I will fear no foe in the dead­ly strife

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

I will bear my lot in the toil of life

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.

Resting on His migh­ty arm for­ev­er

Never from His lov­ing heart to sev­er.

I will rest by grace in His strong em­brace

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.

I will sing my song as the days go by

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

And re­joice in hope

while I live or die

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.

I can smile at grief and abide in pain

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

And the loss of all shall be high­est gain

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.

O

the peace and joy of the life I live

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

O

the strength and grace on­ly God can give

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sa­vior.

Whosoever will may be saved to­day

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior;

And be­gin to walk in the ho­ly way

Trusting in the pro­mise of the Sav­ior.
