Everywhere with Jesus,
Thus I find sweet rest;
Just the way He goeth,
Is for me the best.
Refrain
Everywhere, everywhere,
Thus I find sweet rest;
Just the way He goeth,
Is for me the best.
Brightest day without Him,
Has but clouded light;
Walking in His presence
Even night is bright.
Refrain
When I follow Jesus,
Pressing to His side,
Even ills seem helpful,
As a gracious tide.
Refrain
If His goings take me
Into pathways strait,
Yet His blessèd presence
Brightens every state.
