Christ My Song - 2076

In the Lord put I my trust - Trust
(John S. B. Monsell/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)

Trust.

"The Lord is on my side; I will not fear:
what can man do unto me?" (Psalm 118,6)

1. In the Lord put I my trust,
he is gentle, he is just,
  he my strength is, he my song,
  and my crown will be ere long. PDF - Midi

2. He may chasten and correct,
but he never can neglect;
  may in faithfulness reprove,
  but he ne'er can cease to love.

3. While in him my trust is true,
fear not I what man can do,
  joy and health with me abide
  while the Lord is on my side.

4. Thou my God art – I will praise
all thy goodness, all my days,
  I will even for thy rod
  thank thee, for thou art my God!

5. Though thou slay me I will trust,
praise thee, even from the dust,
  prove, and tell it as I prove,
  thine unutterable Love.

6. Therefore I the world defy,
while thy hand and heart are nigh;
  now, O Lord, my helper be,
  send us now prosperity.
