ENGLISH -
1 Simply trusting every day,
trusting through a stormy way;
even when my faith is small,
trusting Jesus, that is all.

Refrain:
Trusting as the moments fly,
trusting as the days go by;
trusting him what e'er befall,
trusting Jesus, that is all.

2 Brightly does his Spirit shine
into this poor heart of mine;
while he leads I cannot fall;
trusting Jesus, that is all. [Refrain]

3 Singing if my way is clear,
praying if the path be drear;
if in danger for Him call;
trusting Jesus, that is all. [Refrain]
