Lyrics to the hymn, Trust And Obey

A mountain in autumn



Introduction

Hello. I am a Mother of Gooses and a lover of hymns; I consider them to be a work of art. And they bring glory to God, our Creator and Redeemer, and Friend.

So, welcome. I hope that you enjoy your stay.

The Subject At Hand

First of all, happy New Year. I'm glad you're here. I hope that God blesses you throughout the year.

Today, we are looking at the lyrics to the hymn, Trust And Obey; it was written in 1887 by John H. Sammis, and it is now published in 453 hymnals. 

Here's some scripture associated with this hymn:

Isiah 50:10

"Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God."

Psalm 84:11

"For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly."

Psalm 84:12

"O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee"

A mountain


The Lyrics


Verses 1

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.

Refrain

Trust and obey, for there's no other way 

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

Verse 2 

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.

(Refrain)

Verse 3

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 blessed if we trust and obey.

(Refrain)

Verse 4

But we never can prove the delights of His love

Until all on the altar we lay;

For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,

Are for them who will trust and obey.

(Refrain)

Verse 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.

(Refrain)

A pretty fall day


Afterwards


"Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet."

Oh, may that day come quickly. And may those who do not love God come to know Him. 

A grassy field
