Thankful Thursday: 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus

When words seem few and far between and I can't seem to wrap my mind around all that is going on, this hymn often sings sweetly to my soul. Today, on my Thankful Thursday post, I am thankful to be able to trust in Jesus and pray for grace to trust Him more. Happy Thursday, friends. 


'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His word;
Just to rest upon His promise;
Just to know, Thus saith the Lord. 

    Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him,
    How I've proved Him o'er and o'er,
    Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus!
    O for grace to trust Him more. 

O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood;
Just in simple faith to plunge me,
'Neath the healing, cleansing flood. 

Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just from sin and self to cease;
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life, and rest, and joy, and peace. 

I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end. 




love,
Kate
