Lyrics

I am trust­ing in my Sav­ior,
With a calm and stea­dy light;
Hope is shin­ing on my path­way,
Making all things fair and bright.

Refrain

I am trust­ing, trust­ing, trust­ing,
I am trust­ing day by day;
I am trust­ing in my Sav­ior,
To go with me all the way.

I am trust­ing in my Sav­ior,
Oh, how sad my life would be,
But for Thy dear pre­sence, Sav­ior,
And to know I’m led by Thee.

Refrain

I am trust­ing in my Sav­ior,
Faith ex­ult­ant mounts above
This dark world and all its pas­sions
To the realms of end­less love.

Refrain

Oh, how sweet to trust my Sav­ior,
Knowing that He is a friend
Who will cheer me thro’ life’s jour­ney,
And be with me to the end.
