He Always is There

Author: W. C. Poole Hymnal: His Worthy Praise #57 (1915) First Line: In sunshine or shadow, in joy or in pain Lyrics: 1 In sunshine or shadow, In joy or in pain, Around me is glory, Like sunshine on rain; For I have a Savior To love and to care; Each step of my pathway He always is there. Refrain: He always is there To love and to care, In sunshine and shadow Christ always is there. 2 If long is the journey, Or dark is the night, If hard is the battle, And long is the fight, I have a dear Savior Who knows how I fare, To cheer and to help me He always is there. [Refrain] 3 When raging the billows On life’s stormy sea, Across the dark waters He cometh to me; He speaks to the tempest In voice sweet and rare, To calm the wild billows My Savior is there. [Refrain] 4 When ended life’s journey, I know who will come To pilot and guide me, To heaven and home; When in the dark valley, No harm will I fear, For Jesus, my Shepherd, Will be with me there. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [In sunshine or shadow]
