Lyrics

I am trust­ing, simp­ly trust­ing,
And I know I am not lost!
Weak am I, and great my debt is,
But my Sav­ior paid the cost!

Refrain

Trusting Je­sus, bless­èd Je­sus!
Trusting Him who died for me!
He be­held, with eye of pi­ty,
Paid the debt and made me free.

While I’m trust­ing, He is with me,
Gently lead­ing me along;
And I know it is my Sav­ior,
By the peace so deep and strong!

Refrain

He has pro­mised to be with me,
And that I shall know Him, too!
Oh, I’ll ne­ver drive Him from me;
By His grace I’ll e’er be true!
