Savior, I Will Trust Thee

Representative Text

1 Savior, I will trust Thee, this shall be my song;
When the days are short­est, when they’re dark and long;
When my friends are tru­est, and my heart is glad,
When they’re false and few­est, and my soul is sad.

2 Savior, I will trust Thee, this shall be my stay;
Stilling all my doubt­ing, driving them away;
Holding me so close­ly, to Thy truth sub­lime,
That my soul shall rip­en, for the bet­ter clime.

3 Savior, I will trust Thee, trust Thee day and night;
Claim the bless­èd pro­mise, which shall guide aright;
All things work to­ge­ther, for my good, I know;
Surely I may trust Him, as I onward go.
