1 Trust and tremble—that is all!
Trust when all is dark and rough,
Tremble, for a saint may fall,
Jesus sees, and that’s enough.
2 Kneel and bless the God of love,
Kneel and woo His wondrous will,
Secrets of the Kingdom prove,
Bare thy bosom to the steel.
3 Swift the Man of sorrows now
Steeps beside thee, stoops to save
Ev’ry thorn upon His brow
Makes thee more and more His slave.
4 Two glad services are ours,
Both the Master loves to bless,
First we serve with all our powers,
Then with all our feebleness.
5 Nothing else thee soul uplifts
Save to serve Him night and day,
Serve Him when He gives His gifts,
Serve Him when He takes away.
6 Children of the cloud, well done!
Sanguine buds break white in flower;
Rainbows follow when the sun
Looks back fondly on the shower.
7 Hallelujah, Christ is Lord!
Trust and tremble at His grace,
Trust the Mighty Master’s Word,
Tremble—He unveils His face!
