Jesus Is All the World to Me

Author: Will L. Thompson Meter: Irregular Appears in 320 hymnals 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. Topics: New Life in Christ Songs of Witness and Praise Used With Tune: ELIZABETH

Will L. Thompson

1847 - 1909 Author of "Jesus Is All the World to Me" in Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) Will Lamartine Thompson (1847-1909) Born: November 7, 1847, East Li­ver­pool, Ohio. Died: Sep­tem­ber 20, 1909, New York, New York. Buried: Ri­ver­view Cem­e­te­ry, East Li­ver­pool, Ohio. Rebuffed in an ear­ly at­tempt to sell his songs to a com­mer­cial pub­lish­er, Thomp­son start­ed his own pub­lish­ing com­pa­ny. He lat­er ex­pand­ed, open­ing a store to sell pi­an­os, or­gans and sheet mu­sic. Both a lyr­i­cist and com­pos­er, he en­sured he would al­ways re­mem­ber words or mel­o­dies that came to him at odd times: "No mat­ter where I am, at home or ho­tel, at the store or tra­vel­ing, if an idea or theme comes to me that I deem wor­thy of a song, I jot it down in verse. In this way I ne­ver lose it." Thompson took ill dur­ing a tour of Eur­ope, and his fam­i­ly cut short their tra­vels to re­turn home. He died a few weeks lat­er.
