Once I thought I walked with Je­sus,
Yet such changeful feelings had,
Sometimes trusting, sometimes doubting,
Sometimes joyful, sometimes sad.

Refrain

O the peace my Sav­ior gives,
Peace I ne­ver knew before!
And my way has brighter grown
Since I learned to trust Him more.

But He called me closer to Him,
Bade my doubts and fears all cease,
And, when I had fully yielded,
Filled my soul with perfect peace.

Refrain

Now I’m trusting every moment,
Nothing less can be enough;
And my Sav­ior bears me gently
O’er the places once so rough.

Refrain

Blessèd Sav­ior, Thou dost keep me
By Thy power from day to day,
And my heart is full of gladness,
For Thou’lt keep me all the way.
