1'Tis so sweet to trust in Je - sus, Just to take Him at His Word;
2 O how sweet to trust in Je - sus, Just to trust His cleans-ing blood;
3 Yes,'tis sweet to trust in Je - sus, Just from sin and self to cease;
4 I'm so glad I learned to trust Him, Pre-cious Je-sus, Sav -ior, Friend;

1 Just to rest up -on His prom -ise, Just to know, "Thus saith the Lord."
2 Just in sim -ple faith to plunge me ' Neath the heal-ing, cleans-ing flood!
3 Just from je-sus sim-ply tak -ing Life and rest, and joy and peace.
4 And I know that he is with me, Will be with me to the end.
