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.

Was praying this morning while going through the most painful and roughest time I've ever experienced; and this old hymn came to my heart and encouraged me to keep pressing on! That The Lord hasn't forgotten me (Isa. 41:10). Hope it blesses others.

My wife was attacked by stroke first in March, 2012. A second attack occurred December 30th, 2012. The Lord preserved her life in both incidents. Right now we are trusting God for her full recovery. Just this night she began to sing this song. I had to google the song. Thank God I found it. As I began to play the song to her, her countenance changed. She was so excited and her face illuminated. I can read from her face that this song is an old long song lingering in her heart. I thank God for the words of the song because as I sing along with my wife, both of us felt refreshed. Our faith in God came alive. We are happy to know that there is hope for us because we trust Him (Jesus).

The tune of this song has been coming to my mind for a very long time but I was unable to lay hands on it, until now that I was inspired to search for it. Now I have it printed.

Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus!

Jesus indeed can be trusted. I stumbled on this song on the evening 31st December 2012 whilst preparing to go for cross over service. I was blessed and had to search for the lyrics the next day the 1st of January 2013. I have decided that will be my song every morning when I am having my quite time. ’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,Just to take Him at His Word;Just to rest upon His promise, And to know, “Thus saith the Lord!” Praise God!!!

My husband is on coumadin and woke me because he had some blood in urine mixed with water. I research for what to do and went into prayer, and this song came in my Spirit. The enemy Is trying to bring confusion because my word for Sunday is Trust coming from Proverbs 3:5-6. I got up and researched the song lyrics and it's so true our complete trust has to be in God. Thank You Lord for more Clarity on your Word for Sunday. God is awesome.

My spirit has been glued to this hymn since the day Pastor Bob Asare of Takoradi sang this song at the World Prayer Centre (then at Tema Comm. 12 Salvation).

Wow,

It is indeed great to trust in Jesus. The song just dropped in my spirit and I had to search for the words.

Let keep keep trusting Jesus.

This song has always been one of my favorite. Reading my devotion this morning - focusing on Trust in the Lord Prov 3:5 - the song came to mind I just had to search for the words. I found this and it strengthen me been off work today on sick leave. Thank You Lord!!
