And doubts, which the Spirit must grieve?
And why should we languish in sorrow and tears,
When there’s nothing to do but believe.
Refrain:
Believe, believe,
Only on Jesus believe;
Salvation is waiting for you and for me,
There is nothing to do but believe.
2 His word is assurance complete;
Thy sins and thine idols now leave;
Come, pleading his promise, and fall at his feet,
Then you’ve nothing to do but believe. [Refrain]
3 How easy the terms of his grace:
‘Tis only to ask and receive;
The seal of his favor, the smile of his face,
Are for those who will only believe. [Refrain] Scripture: Mark 5:36 Used With Tune: [Oh, why should we wrestle with fears]
Only Believe
