My Saviour Keeps Me Company
Hymnal: The Ark of Praise #17 (1882) First Line: My Savior keeps me company Lyrics: 1 My Saviour keeps me company
Along the narrow way,
And I am trusting in his grace
To keep me day by day,
The path may be a rugged one,
Yet cheerfully I’ll sing;
For there’s such love, and joy, and rest,
Beneath his shelt’ring wing.
2 My Saviour keeps me company,
So I am ne’er alone,
Tho’ earthly friends may turn away,
And leave me, one by one;
Those too I’ve loved and trusted most,
And thought were truest friends;
But his is an unchanging love,
Mine till the journey ends.
3 My Saviour keeps me company,
Yes, Jesus, thou art mine;
What confidence I now look up,
Assured too I am thine.
Redeemed from sin and Satan’s power,
Bought with thy precious blood,
Earth has no claims upon me now,
For I belong to God.
4 My Saviour keeps me company,
Friendless, and poor, and lone,
Yet he bestows rich love one me,
And claims me for his own.
Then let the world despise me now,
He loves me just the same
For Jesus keeps me company,
And Jesus knows my name. Tune Title: [My Savior keeps me company]

William J. Kirkpatrick
1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[My Savior keeps me company]" in The Ark of Praise William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia.

Person Name: Anon. Author of "My Saviour Keeps Me Company" in Select Songs for the Singing Service In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
