In the jourÂney of life,
When trouÂbled thoughts arise,
Like the bilÂlows upÂon the sea,
Let us look unÂto Him whose
Tender, lovÂing arm
Our preÂsent help will be.
Refrain
He will meet us by the way,
Yes, He’ll meet us by the way,
And our hearts with burn with love,
When we think of the joy, the
Never endÂing rest,
For us preÂpared above.
He will cheer as He cheered
His faithÂful ones of old,
When they mourned for their abÂsent Lord,
And comÂmune with His childÂren
Walking in the path
He taught them in His word.
Refrain
O the peace that will come
Like earÂly mornÂing dew,
When in secÂret we kneel in prayÂer,
And the door of the soul to
All the world is closed,
With onÂly Jesus there!
Refrain
