40   Trust and obey




[V1]
When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of his word,
What a glory he sheds on our way!
While we do his good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

[C]
Trust and obey,
for there’s no other way,
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

[V2]
    Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But his smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

[C]
Trust and obey,
for there’s no other way,
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

[V3]
Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil he doth richly repay;
Not a grief nor a loss,
Not a frown nor cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.

[C]
Trust and obey,
for there’s no other way,
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

[V4]
But we never can prove,
The delights of his love,
Until all on the alter we lay;
For the favor he shows,
And the joy he bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

[C]
Trust and obey,
for there’s no other way,
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

[V5]
Then in fellowship sweet,
We will sit at his feet,
Or we’ll walk by his side in the way;
What he says we will do,
Where he sends we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.

[C]
Trust and obey,
for there’s no other way,
To be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.
