’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.
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er,
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus!

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.

Life, and rest, and joy, and peace.

Wilt be with me to the end.

Woke up humming this song this morning. I am praying for grace to love Jesus more and more.

This is very wonderful song, it's very important for us to trust in Jesus alone. Because he's all in all for us. I'm glad with this song again today, when my faith was wavering, he prove himself in my life again.

This song came to mind this evening. I learned it many years ago. I want to trust Jesus more. I have erred so much and angered him. He’s dealt gently with me, not as my sins deserve. Thank you Jesus! I want to simply trust Him and love Him and honor Him and live for Him! Jesus, give me the grace to that end. I love you Jesus!

This song hit my mind on the morning of 3rd January 2026 after paternal uncle who I stay with (he hates me so much) shouted at me simply because he asked something from his own daughter and she refused to respond and he turned that anger against me. I was in deep thoughts and this hymn hit my mind ❤️❤️❤️

This deepy touching hymn was composed under severe trials and loss. (see comment on March 16, 2025) but upon publication was translated and sung around the world building up the Body of Christ immensely.
Precious Lord Jesus You are our Savior, our life, our best friend, our everything!
