Author: John Brownlie, 1857-1925 Hymnal: Together in Song #605 (1999) Meter: 8.4.8.4.8 Scripture: Philippians 4:8-14 Lyrics: 1 I am alone, yet not alone;
Lord, you are near:
I cannot see your loving face,
but I can hear
the cheering promise of your grace.
2 You will not leave me in the dark
when falls the night,
for round my path and in my soul
your are the light
to guide me with your sweet control.
3 No need can steal my rich supplies
Of love and peace;
for though I lack what others hold,
my stores increase
with heavenly gifts more rare than gold.
4 And you will bear me all life through,
and in the end
will still abide what you have been,
my constant friend,
and take me where your face is seen. Topics: Devotion; Faithfulness of God; Fear; Grace; Grief; Intimate Love; Jesus Christ Friend and Companion; Pilgrimage; Providence; Vision Languages: English Tune Title: MY LORD AND FRIEND
