129. I Will Trust in My Savior

1 Though the shadows gather o'er my pathway here,
And no sun comes with joyous ray,
In the darkness not an evil will I fear,
For my Savior is leading the way.

Refrain:
I will trust in my Savior,
I will trust in my Savior,
I will trust in my Savior alway;
He will lead me through the night,
By his ever shining light,
I will trust in my Savior to-day!

2 In the tempest when the winds around me roll,
And the thunders my heart affright,
Sweetly comes a loving whisper to my soul,
Then the world is all beauty and light. [Refrain]

3 When the chilling blight of death is on my brow,
And the earth passes from my view,
Simply trusting in my Savior then, as now,
He will lead me in paths ever new. [Refrain]
