1. Hymn: Trust and Rest

Trust and Rest

Author: A. B. Simpson

1. Trust and rest in Christ forever,
    Lean thy head upon His breast;
    Nothing from His love can sever
    Those who simply trust and rest.

2. Trust and rest in hours of sorrow;
    Every wrong shall be redressed,
    In some happy, bright tomorrow,
    If you only trust and rest.

3. Trust and rest when all around thee
    Puts thy faith to sorest test;
    Let no fear nor foe confound thee,
    Wait for God and trust and rest.

4. Trust and rest with heart abiding,
    Like a birdling in its nest,
    Underneath His feathers hiding;
    Fold thy wings and trust and rest.

5. Trust and rest till gentle fingers
    Fold thy hands across thy breast,
    While the echo softly lingers,
    Everlasting trust and rest.
