Update 10/2/20: Sheet music for this song can be downloaded here.
This is #6 of The Seven Last Words, in which Jesus says, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.” (Luke 23:46) In the drama of the crucifixion, these words meant, “I’m ready to die.” But there is another layer of meaning, for Jesus and for us: Jesus committed himself–trusted his whole being–to God’s care. That should be our posture, too, both in our living and our dying.
To you, O Lord, I trust my soul.
I trust my soul to you.
My Refuge, with my last breath
I will call to you.
My Savior with my last breath
I will worship you.
