Trust and Obey Lyrics by Don Moen
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
Not a shadow can rise
Not a cloud in the skies
But His smile quickly drives it away
Not a doubt nor a fear
Not a sigh nor a tear
Can abide while we trust and obey
Trust and obey
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus
But to trust and obey
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
Trust and obey
For there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus
But to trust and obey
‘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
Oh for grace to trust Him more
Lord, oh for grace to trust You more
