Lyrics
The word of the Lord is true
From days of old foretold
The coming Messiah the perfect
Sacrifice for all my sins
I will put my trust in Jesus
And turn from my own way
And walk with Him forever
For He has brought me life
Chorus (0:50):
He is my helper and provider,
My safety rests in Christ the Lord.
He is my friend and Redeemer;
Forever, I will put my trust in the Lord.
I will give Him thanks, for He laid down His life for me.
I will rejoice in the Lord, for His grace is poured out for my sake.
He is my helper and provider,
My safety rests in Christ the Lord.
He is my friend and Redeemer;
Forever, I will put my trust in the Lord.
He is my helper and provider,
My safety rests in Christ the Lord.
He is my friend and Redeemer;
Forever, I will put my trust in the Lord.
I will put my trust
I will put my trust
I will put my trust in the Lord
I will put my trust
I will put my trust
I will put my trust in the Lord
