Grove Songs No. 2 ‎#11a

11a. TRUSTING IN THE LORD.

1. I am coming to the cross;
I am poor, and weak, and blind;
I am counting all but dross;
I shall full salvation find.

Refrain:
I am trusting, Lord, in thee,
Thou dear Lamb of Calvary;
Humbly at thy cross I bow;
Save me, Jesus, save me now.

2. Long my heart has sighed for thee;
Long as evil reigned within;
Jesus sweetly speaks to me,
I will cleanse you from all sin.
I am trusting, etc.

3. Here I give my all to thee,--
Friends, and time, and earthly store;
Soul and body thine to be--
Wholly thine--forever more.
I am trusting, etc.

4. In the promises I trust;
Now I feel the blood applied;
I am prostrate in the dust;
I with Christ am crucified.
I am trusting, etc.

5. Jesus comes! he fills my soul!
Perfected in love I am;
I am every whit made whole;
Glory, glory to the Lamb.
I am trusting, etc.
