Trust Him when thy friends are few;
And the time of swift temptation
Is the time to trust Him too.
With the sense of all its sin;
He will speak the word of pardon,
He will make thee clean within.
Ever equal to thy need;
Trust Him always for the answer,
When in His dear name you plead.
He is able to subdue;
Trust Him for the power for service;
Trust Him for the blessing too.
Trust Him when thy strength is small,
Trust Him when to simply trust Him
Seems the hardest thing of all.
Trust Him, for His will is best;
Trust Him, for the heart of Jesus
Is the only place of rest.
All thy cares upon Him cast,
Till the storm of life is over,
And the trusting days are past.
