 1 

Trust Him when thy wants are many;

   Trust Him when thy friends are few;

And the time of swift temptation

   Is the time to trust Him too.

 

 2 

Trust Him when thy soul is burdened

   With the sense of all its sin;

He will speak the word of pardon,

   He will make thee clean within.

 

 3 

Trust Him for the grace sufficient,

   Ever equal to thy need;

Trust Him always for the answer,

   When in His dear name you plead.

 

 4 

Trust Him for the grace to conquer,

   He is able to subdue;

Trust Him for the power for service;

   Trust Him for the blessing too.

 

 5 

Trust Him when dark doubts assail thee,

   Trust Him when thy strength is small,

Trust Him when to simply trust Him

   Seems the hardest thing of all.

 

 6 

Trust Him; His is ever faithful;

   Trust Him, for His will is best;

Trust Him, for the heart of Jesus

   Is the only place of rest.

 

 7 

Trust Him, then, through cloud or sunshine,

   All the cares upon Him cast,

Till the storm of life is over,

   And the trusting days are past.
