Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus

1
'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.
2
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.
3
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.
4
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.

This use to be one of my favorite hyms in high school back in the day. I forgot the lyrics, and was humming the song during my private devotion. I decided to goggle it to retrieve the lyrics, surprisingly someone had developed a musical background of the song. I could not stop singing. God bless you richly for touching my life positvely.

This song helps me to consecrate my life and trust in God. It tells me o'er and o'er that my trust in Jesus Christ has no backup - it is a trust without spare. It may seem hard at times to trust in Jesus but it is sweet in the long run through faith and by His grace.

I sang this song in my dream and since that day, I can't stop singing the song and this song has made me to understand that it's all about trusting Jesus and also that the only thing that differentiate me as a Christian from other religion is the "GRACE" of God and I always pray for this grace to trust Him more and more.

Louisa Stead and her husband were relaxing with their 4-year-old daughter on a Long Island beach when they heard a desperate child's cry. A boy was drowning, and Louisa's husband tried to rescue him. In the process, however, the boy pulled Mr. Stead under the water, and both drowned as Louisa and her daughter watched.

Louisa Stead was left with no means of support except the Lord. She and her daughter experienced dire poverty. One morning, when she had neither funds nor food for the day, she opened the front door and found that someone had left food and money on her doorstep. That day she wrote this hymn. - Great Songs of Faith by Brown and Norton
