278 When we walk with the lord
        Verse 4                                                 Verse 1
        Though vine nor fig-tree neither                        When we walk with the lord
        Their wonted fruit should bear,                         In the light of His word What a glory he sheds
        Though all the field should wither,                     on our way!
        Nor flocks nor herds be there,
                                                                While we do His good will,  he abides with us
        Yet, God the same abiding,                              still, And with all who will   trust and obey:
        His praise shall tune my voice;
        For, while in Him confiding,                            Chorus Trust and obey,   for there's no other
        I cannot but rejoice.   4/4                             way  To be happy in Jesus,
        HOME                                                    But to trust and obey.   1/5

        Saviour                                                 Verse 2
        Verse 1                                                 Not a shadow can rise,
        Through the love of God our Saviour,                    Not a cloud in the skies,
        All will be well;                                       But His smile quickly   drives it away;
        Free and changeless is his favour,  All, all is well:
                                                                Not a doubt nor a fear,
        Precious is the blood that healed us;                   Not a sigh nor a tear,  Can abide while we   trust
        Perfect is the grace that sealed us;                    and obey.
        Strong the hand stretched forth to shield us,
        All must be well.  1/3                                  Chorus Trust and obey,   for there's no other

        All will be well;                                       Verse 3
        Christ has purchased full salvation, All, all is        Not a burden we bear,  Not a sorrow we share,
        well:                                                   But our toil he doth  richly repay;
        Happy still in God confiding;
        Fruitful, if in Christ abiding;                         Not a grief nor a loss,
        Holy, through the Spirit's guiding;                     Not a frown nor a cross, But is blest if we   trust
        All must be well.   2/3                                 and obey.

        Verse 3                                                 Chorus Trust and obey,   for there's no other
        We expect a bright to-morrow;                           way  To be happy in Jesus,
        All will be well;                                       But to trust and obey.   3/5
        Faith can sing through days of sorrow,

                                                                But we never can prove
        On our Father's love relying,                           The delights of His love
        Jesus every need supplying,                             Until all on the altar we lay;
        Then in living or in dying,
        All must be well.   3/3                                 For the favour he shows,  and the joy he
                                                                bestows,  Are for them who will   trust and obey.
