1 How sweet is our refuge who firmly believe,
And trust in the arm of the Saviour;
What tokens of mercy we daily receive,
Who trust in the arm of the Saviour.

Refrain:
Our crosses and trials he helps us to bear,
He knows our temptations, he feels every care;
What blessings he gives us in answer to prayer!
Oh, trust in the arm of the Saviour.

2 Our peace like a river shall constantly flow,
Who trust in the arm of the Saviour;
The joy of his presence we ever shall know,
Who trust in the arm of the Saviour. [Refrain]

3 Tho’ faith may be tested, abide in his love,
And trust in the arm of the Saviour;
How bright is our prospect for glory above,
Who trust in the arm of the Saviour. [Refrain]

4 Oh, be not discouraged, whatever befall,
But trust in the arm of the Saviour;
Remember his grace is sufficient for all,
Who trust in the arm of the Saviour. [Refrain]
