Midweek Praise Wednesday 17 March 2021

When we walk with the Lord
in the light of His word,
what a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
and with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey.
for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

Not a shadow can rise,
not a cloud in the skies,
but His smile quickly drives it away;
not a doubt nor a fear,
not a sigh nor a tear.
can abide while we trust and obey.

Trust and obey.
for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

Not a burden we bear,
not a sorrow we share,
but our toil He doth richly repay;
not a grief nor a loss,
not a frown nor a cross,
but is blest if we trust and obey.

Trust and obey.
for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

But we never can prove
the delights of His love,
until all on the altar we lay;
for the favour He shows,
and the joy He bestows
are for them who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey.
for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

Then in fellowship sweet,
we will sit at His feet,
or we’ll walk by His side in the way.
What He says we will do,
where He sends we will go,
never fear, only trust and obey.

Trust and obey.
for there’s no other way
to be happy in Jesus,
but to trust and obey.

O happy day! that fixed my choice
on Thee, my Saviour and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
and tell its raptures all abroad.

O happy day! O happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
and live rejoicing every day;
(hallelujah!)
O happy day! O happy day!
when Jesus washed my sins away.

‘Tis done, the great transaction’s done!
I am my Lord’s and He is mine!
He drew me, and I followed on,
charmed to confess the voice divine.

O happy day! O happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
and live rejoicing every day;
(hallelujah!)
O happy day! O happy day!
when Jesus washed my sins away.

Now rest, my long-divided heart,
fixed on this blissful centre, rest;
nor ever from the Lord depart,
with Him of every good possessed.

O happy day! O happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
and live rejoicing every day;
(hallelujah!)
O happy day! O happy day!
when Jesus washed my sins away.

High heaven, that heard the solemn vow,
that vow renewed shall daily hear;
till in life’s latest hour I bow,
and bless in death a bond so dear.

O happy day! O happy day!
When Jesus washed my sins away;
He taught me how to watch and pray,
and live rejoicing every day;
(hallelujah!)
O happy day! O happy day!
when Jesus washed my sins away.
