‘Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus

‘Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus

Song written by Louisa Stead in 1882 (more than 141 years ago)

GodTube.Com presents the story behind this evergreen inspirational Gospel song thus:

“It was a beautiful sunny day. Louisa M. Stead, her husband, and her daughter Lily decided to go for a picnic. They went picnicking on Long Island Sound. While having their picnic, the Steads heard a scream. It was from a young boy. Mr. Stead ran to the rescue. Louisa Stead and young Lily watched helplessly as Mr. Stead and the boy drowned. Their troubles were not over yet, however, and without her husband, Mrs. Stead became very poor and destitute. Yet God never left her. He provided for her always and she and her daughter made it through. Louisa learned to trust God, and thus the words to the song ‘Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus.’ Shortly after this incident, Louisa and her daughter Lily moved to South Africa where they became missionaries.”

Jehovah Who is The LORD God Almighty use this song to encourage and strengthen you in your hour of need. Amen!

Shalom!
