Take Je­sus with you, along the way,
Have sweet com­mun­ion with Him each day;
This El­der Bro­ther ’tis joy to know,
Take Je­sus with you, wher­e’er you go.

Refrain

A sweet com­pan­ion­ship is this to know and share,
A bless­èd fel­low­ship of joy most rare;
Would you be hap­py, the Sav­ior know?
Then take Him with you wher­e’er you go.

Take Jes­us with you, His won­drous pow­er
Will bless and bright­en the dark­est hour;
Your cares and trou­bles the Lord doth know,
Take Je­sus with you wher­e’er you go.

Refrain

Take Je­sus with you, His pre­cious name
And great sal­va­tion to all pro­claim;
Your friend and Sav­ior to others show,
Take Je­sus with you wher­e’er you go.

Refrain

Take Je­sus with you, and then at last,
When ev­en­ing sha­dows are ga­ther­ing fast,
He will sus­tain you and bear you o’er
The roll­ing Jor­dan to Ca­naan’s shore.
