Praise the name of Jesus for His tender care,
Watching o’er me every day;
He will bear my burdens, hear my feeble prayer,
And will guide me when I stray.
Refrain
All the way, all the way,
I will praise His name every day;
I am happy in my blessèd Savior’s love,
And I’m singing all the way.
For my Savior is my never-failing friend,
Thro’ the night and thro’ the day;
On His love I know I always can depend,
So I’ll praise Him every day.
Refrain
Tho’ the dark’ning shadows round about me creep,
And the way is lone and drear:
By my Savior’s side I’ll ever closely keep,
Singing happy songs of cheer.
