When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way;
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey,
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide while we trust and obey.

Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss,
Not a frown or a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.

But we never can prove
The delights of His love,
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
And the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

5
Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do;
Where He sends, we will go,
Never fear, only trust and obey.
We will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do;

Never fear, only trust and obey.

The trust of this hymn blesses my heart. Teach me Lord to trust and obey You so that I can be happy in my relationship with You.

It is wonderful to note how our gracious Lord leads us in mysterious ways and teach us to trust Him and obey Him when we are in despair and weak and have no strength of our own. May the Lord bless me to trust and obey Him all of my life. Amen.

While meditating on Hebrews 11:8, the chorus of this hymn came to mind.
Heb 11:8 By faith - believing what God had said unto him expressing confidence in the person who had promised
Abraham, the individual whom God had called (when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; - this was Abraham's heart response to God's call and he went out, - this was Abraham's physical response to what his heart had already responded to not knowing whither he went. - he had never been in the place before. He believed that God was going to provide what He promised.

The stanza about laying all at His feet touched me-since that's the way to be happy in Jesus.

What a great joy to know that we are only required to Trust and Obey Christ and everything else will take its course! This song ministers to my soul greatly. It can't stop ringing in my heart every day and night.
If only I can Trust and Obey Him!!!!

I like this song, because in our daily living, every times we contact the Lord in His word;deep within comes the Lords speaking, like do this or let's go there. Instantly we trust and while we are in the way and things are not going our way we star doubting.But praise the Lord!!!That if we trust we need to obey, what the Lord begins He would completed. LOOK AWAY UNTO JESUS!!!

I love this song from my heart. I think through the consciousness it comes a time when you feel that you need to stick on trusting and obeying Lord. I feel so privileged that I got to know this song as it is reminding me a valuable thing in my Christian life....
I love You, I trust You and I obey You, Lord!

When trials come our way and we feel we just can't handle things anymore, the only thing we can do to move on is to TRUST OUR LORD AND OBEY HIS WORD. His ways are far better than our ways. Hallelujah!
