Trust Jesus (Sweeter)
Trust Jesus
Words & Music by Sara Beth Geoghegan
Muggy nights with air so thick you could taste the rain
The ringing of the steamboat’s song from the river banks
The sighs and groans of our old home singing me to sleep
The city had grown into me
Uniforms and sleepy girls in creaking wooden pews
The morning called for quiet thoughts in the chapel of our school
With Mary looking tired and sad, Jesus much the same
‘Neath the echoes and arches we prayed
And it’s easy to trust Jesus when the storm’s far away
But when memories and feelings of your home and your faith
Have been smashed into pieces by the storm’s awful wave
Then it’s sweeter to trust Jesus
Awning of the old oak trees planted long ago
With roots that spread and cracked the streets, mightiness below
The grumble on the avenue from the street car line
‘neath the towering houses we’d ride
And it’s easy to trust Jesus when the storm’s far away
But when memories and feelings of your home and your faith
Have been smashed into pieces by the storm’s awful wave
Then it’s sweeter to trust Jesus when you’ve nothing to give or say
Oh for grace to trust him when the storm comes
When it’s all gone
Tis so sweet
