Jesus Is All the World to Me

Author: Will L. Thompson Meter: Irregular Appears in 307 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1 Lyrics: 1 Jesus is all the world to me, my life, my joy, my all; he is my strength from day to day, without him I would fall. When I am sad, to him I go, no other one can cheer me so; when I am sad he makes me glad, he's my friend. 2 Jesus is all the world to me, my friend in trials sore; I go to him for blessings, and he gives them o'er and o'er. He sends the sunshine and the rain, he sends the harvest's golden grain, sunshine and rain, harvest of grain, he's my friend. 3 Jesus is all the world to me, and true to him I'll be; O, how could I this friend deny, when he's so true to me? Following him I know I'm right, he watches o'er me day and night; following him by day and night, he's my friend. 4 Jesus is all the world to me, I want no better friend; I trust him now, I'll trust him when life's fleeting days shall end. Beautiful life with such a friend, beautiful life that has no end; eternal life, eternal joy, he's my friend.

Things future, nor things that are now, nor all things below or above, can make him his purpose forgo, or sever my soul from his love. 3 My name from the palms of his hands eternity will not erase; impressed on his heart it remains, in marks of indelible grace. Yes, I to the end shall endure, as sure as the earnest is giv'n; more happy, but not more secure, the glorified spirits in heav'n.
