Lyrics 1 I will not be weary, tho’ trials may come, And troubles before me I see, But count them as nothing compared with the love Of Jesus, my Saviour, to me. Refrain: I’ll sing of His love, of His wonderful love, Tho’ billows like mountains may roll; I fear not the tempest, I dread not the storm, For Jesus gives joy to my soul. 2 I cannot be weary when He is my rest; Whate’er my temptations may be, I’ll trust in His promise because He has said: “My grace is sufficient for thee.” [Refrain] 3 There’s joy that no language or thought can express, It comes from His presence divine; And when in His likeness at last I awake, Its fullness I know will be mine! [Refrain]
