Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Alexander's Hymns No. 4 #123 (1921) First Line: Trusting wholly in the mighty Saviour Refrain First Line: I can trust Him when the storm is sweeping Lyrics: 1 Trusting wholly in the mighty Saviour, Fearing neither storm nor foe; I will praise Him for His gracious favor, As with Him I want to go. Refrain: I can trust Him when the storm is sweeping, I can trust when happy, sad or lone; For I know that I am in His keeping— And that Jesus careth for His own. 2 Many angry foes may rise around me, And the way may oft seem long; But the Son of God who sought and found me, Still will be my strength and song. [Refrain] 3 Heavy burdens oft may come to bend me, Sorrow cause my tears to fall; But my Saviour will be near to lend me Grace to triumph over all. [Refrain] 4 Let me tell on earth the tender story, That He careth for His own, Then go home to sing His praise in glory, ‘Round the rainbow circled-throne.
