<p class="just">This hymn gives a simple, clear explanation of living the Christian life. The title expression was used in a testimony meeting, following an evangelistic crusade in Brockton, Massachusetts, by Dwight Lyman Moody. A young man stood to speak, and it soon became clear he knew little Christian doctrine. But he finished by saying, “I’m not quite sure—but I’m
|
|
going to trust, and I’m going to obey.” Daniel Towner, who was in the meeting, jotted down the words, and gave them to John Sammis, who developed the lyrics from them.</p>

|
<p>When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,<br>
|
|
What a glory He sheds on our way!<br>
|
|
While we do His good will, He abides with us still,<br>
|
|
And with all who will trust and obey.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Trust and obey, for there’s no other way<br>
|
|
To be happy with Jesus, but to trust and obey.</p>
|
|
<p>Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,<br>
|
|
But His smile quickly drives it away;<br>
|
|
Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,<br>
|
|
Can abide while we trust and obey.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,<br>
|
|
But our toil He doth richly repay;<br>
|
|
Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,<br>
|
|
But is blessed if we trust and obey.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>But we never can prove the delights of His love<br>
|
|
Until all on the altar we lay;<br>
|
|
For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,<br>
|
|
Are for them who will trust and obey.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet.<br>
|
|
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way.<br>
|
|
What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;<br>
|
|
Never fear, only trust and obey.</p>
|
|
