Trinity Hymnal ‎#680

680. Anywhere with Jesus

1 Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go,
Anywhere He leads me in this world below;
Anywhere without him dearest joys would fade;
Anywhere with Jesus I am not afraid.

Refrain:
Anywhere! anywhere! Fear I cannot know,
Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.

2 Anywhere with Jesus I need fear no ill,
Tho' temptations gather round my pathway still;
He himself was tempted that he might help me;
Anywhere with Jesus I may victor be. [Refrain]

3 Anywhere with Jesus I am not alone,
Other friends my fail me, he is still my own;
Tho' his hand may lead me over dreary ways,
Anywhere with Jesus is a house of praise. [Refrain]

4 Anywhere with Jesus I can go to sleep,
When the dark'ning shadows round about me creep;
Knowing I shall waken, never more to roam,
Anywhere with Jesus will be home, sweet home. [Refrain]
