                     G                C           G

                 1.  'Tis so sweet to trust in Je-sus,

                                     D  A7  D

                     And to take Him at His word;

                     G               C           G

                     Just to rest up-on His prom-ise,

                            C          G     D   G

                     And to know,"Thus saith the Lord."



                         REFRAIN

                                         D7  Em G    D7

                         Je-sus, Je-sus, how I  trust him!

                         G                   D    A7  D

                         How I've proved Him o'er and o'er!

                         G               C            G

                         Je-sus, Je-sus, pre-cious Je-sus!

                               C        G     D   G

                         O for grace to trust Him more!



                 2.  O how sweet to trust in Je-sus,

                     Just to trust His cleans-ing blood;

                     And in sim-ple faith to plunge me

                     'Neath the heal-ing, cleans-ing flood!

                        

                        REFRAIN



                 3.  Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Je-sus,

                     Just from sin and self to cease;

                     Just from Je-sus sim-ply tak-ing

                     Life and rest, and joy and peace.



                        REFRAIN



                 4.  I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee,

                     Pre-cious Je-sus, Sav-ior, friend;

                     And I know that Thou art with me,

                     Wilt be with me to the end.



                       REFRAIN



                                  C G

                                  A-men
