48. ‘TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS

  1. ‘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.”

    Chorus:

    Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him,

    How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er!

    Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!

    O for grace to trust Him more!

  2. O how sweet to trust in Jesus,

    Just to trust His cleansing blood;

    Just in simple faith to plunge me

    ‘Neath the healing, cleansing flood!

  3. Yes ‘tis sweet to trust in Jesus

    Just from sin and self to cease;

    Just from Jesus simply taking

    Life and rest, and joy and peace.

  4. I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee.

    Precious Jesus, saviour, friend;

    And I know that Thou art with me,

    Wilt be with me to the end.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
