God Is With Me !

God Is With Me!

Let me tell you something of my friend,
And as I do, perhaps all of you will recognize
The value of my prize.
For all my worldly wealth,
My physical and mental health,
In storm or weather fair
Depends upon His care.

I've learned each day, to choose the way,
To loose my fears,
And though troubles press,
With sore distress upon my soul,
I know somehow that He is with me now
And will be through the passing years.

Yes - He is with me
Even though in thought I've often caught myself
So far away from Him-
And even though I sometimes join the race-
Away from his Amazing Grace,
I always turn around to find He's there,
Behind my fleeing foot,
To put His hand upon my heart
To draw me back
To live with Him - Apart.

He is with me,
Especially when my other friends misunderstand
The methods that I use,
Or when they refuse to see
That He and I are friends,
Working silently to make 'not' brake the strongholds of the faith.

He 'is' with me.
Not was
Way back in the past
Or will be in some future day - still far away
But 'is'
Yes. He is with me - now.

This is without all doubt my greatest joy,
So I can toy with troubles,
And give my soul to song
For I belong to God.
And as I walk the trackless course of time,
I have no fear somehow;
For the Great Almighty God is -
With me - even now.
