A E A E E7 A
1. When we walk with the Lord In the light of his word
2. Not a shad-ow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies,
3. Not a bur-den we bear, Not a sor-row we share,
4. But we nev-er can prove The de -lights of His love
5. Then in fel-low -ship sweet We will sit at His feet
D A E
1. What a glo-ry He sheds on our way!
2. But His smile quick-ly drives it a -way;
3. But our toil He doth rich-ly re -pay;
4. Un-til all on the al-tar we lay;
5. Or we'll walk by His side in the way;
A E A E E7 A
1. While we do His good will He a -bides with us still,
2. Not a doubt nor a fear, Not a sigh nor a tear,
3. Not a grief nor a loss, Not a frown nor a cross,
4. For the fa-vor He shows And the joy He be -stows
5. What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go;
D A E A
1. And with all who will trust and o-bey.
2. Can a -bide while we trust and o-bey.
3. But is blest if we trust and o-bey.
4. Are for them who will trust and o-bey.
5. Nev-er fear, on-ly trust and o-bey.
Chorus
E E7 A F#min F# F#7 Bm
Trust and o -bey, for there's no other way
A E A E A
To be hap-py in Je-sus, But to trust and o-bey.
