8488. He Always Comes That Way

1 O take some precious promise
And rest thy soul therein,
Wait for thy Lord to meet thee there today;
For He His word hath given
Which ne’er hath broken been,
He always comes along that way.

Refrain:
He always comes along that way;
He always comes along that way;
Come rest upon His promise,
Ne’er doubt what it may say,
He always comes along that way.

2 Each promise is most precious,
And cheering to the soul,
For Jesus is the glory of its lay;
Whate’er He says He’s able—
E’en waves and winds control,
He always comes along that way. [Refrain]

3 When weary of earth’s trials,
When sorrows great oppress,
Go find the blessèd Lord without delay;
He’s promised to relieve thee
Of burdens and distress,
He always comes along that way. [Refrain]
