’Tis So Sweet Just To Know, As I With My Savior Go,
If I Heed Every Sacred Command
That When Sorrows Betide I May In The Refuge Hide;
He Upholds Me Secure With His Hand.
’Tis So Sweet Just To Know That My Father Loves Me So,
He Will List To My Heart’s Faintest Cry:
I Will Trust In His Grace, For I See His Smiling Face,
’Tis So Sweet Just To Know He Is Nigh.
’Tis So Sweet Just To Feel, As Before Him Low I Kneel,
That He Knows All My Burdens And Needs,
Counts Each One Of My Tears, Bids Me Cease From All My Fears;
And His Spirit For Me Intercedes.
I’ll Rejoice In The Shame When I Suffer For His Name,
He Will Only Permit What Is Best;
Holy Angels Are Near Those Who Walk In Godly Fear,
’Tis So Sweet Just To Trust Him And Rest.
Oh, How Sweet It Will Be When My Savior I Shall See,
In His Presence To Dwell Evermore!
I Will Share In The Loss And Reproaches Of His Cross,
For The Joy That Is Waiting Before.
