TRUST AN D OBEY
Words by J. H. Sammis Music by D. B. Towner
“Some years ago Moody was con ducting meetings in Brockton, Mass.,” wrote D. B. Towner, “and I had the pleasure of singing for him there. One night a young man rose in testimony meeting and said, ‘I’m not quite sure —but I am going to trust, and I am going to obey .’ I jotted that sentence down and sent it with the story to Rev. J. H. Sammis. He wrote the hymn and the tune was born.” Sammis, bom in New York, became a businessman in Logansport, Ind., and an active Christian layman. He finally gave up his business, served as a YMCA secretary for several years, then became a Presbyterian minister, pastoring churches in In diana, Michigan and M in n e so ta . From 1909 until his death (June 12, 1919) he was on the faculty of the Los Angeles Bible Institute. D. B. Towner was bom March 5, 1850, in Rome, Pa. (the birthplace of Philip Bliss). The possessor of un usual musical ability, he became musical director of the Centenary M. E. Church of Binghamton, N.Y., at the age of 20, later serving in a sim ilar capacity in the York Street Meth odist Church of Cincinnati. In 1885 he joined Dwight L. Moody, serving as head of Moody Bible Institute’s music department from 1893 until his death. The University of Tennes see conferred the degree of Doctor of Music upon him in 1900. He was an outstanding singer, choirleader and teacher, with a rich baritone voice. He edited many hymnals and com posed music for hundreds of songs, including “Redeemed,” “A n yw h e re With Jesus,” “Grace Greater Than Our Sins” and “Trust and Obey.” He died suddenly, October 3, 1919, while conducting the music in an evange listic campaign in Longwood, Mo.
