‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.’

Proverbs 3v5-6

Verse 1

When we walk with The Lord

In the light of His word

There are mercies He sheds on our way,

Though we stumble and fall

He gives grace for it all

So take courage and trust and obey

Verse 2

When the mountains get steep

Shakes our faith, leaves us weak

Prowls the tempter to lure us astray

Christ our refuge and guide

Will remain by our side

Do not fear, only trust and obey

Chorus

Trust and obey

For there’s no other way

To be happy in Jesus

But to trust and obey.

Verse 3

Come you failures and see

Hopeless rebels set free

Where the Lamb, full submission, displayed

There He paid for our sin

Now His Spirit within

Is our joy as we trust and obey

Verse 4

In His righteousness sing!

By His grace live for Him!

As we wait for that glorious day

When our Saviour we’ll see

What a day that will be

Until then we will trust and obey
