1 Oh, look at the faithfulness of Christ, our Lord,
How He saves and keeps the soul;
Who trusts in His majesty and standeth on His word,
Shall be safe while the billows roll.

Refrain:
Oh, trust in God,
Oh, trust in God,
Oh, trust in God,
Oh, trust in the faithful God.

2 Oh, look at the universe that He has made;
See the twinkling worlds on high;
Alone on His fiat are these mighty planets stayed;
Then we know He can never lie. [Refrain]

3 The word He hath spoken shall forever stand;
It will never pass away;
By it were the heavens made, the sea, and all the land;
It is surely the same today. [Refrain]

4 The Lord, He is faithful to bestow on us
Life and breath, yea, and all things;
But, chiefly, His saving grace and pure righteousness;
Oh, what peace, love, and joy it brings! [Refrain]
