87.  He Abides

I’m rejoicing night and day as I walk the narrow way, For the hand of God in all my life I see; And the reason of my bliss, yes, the secret all is this: That the Comforter abides with me.

He abides, he abides; Hallelujah, he abides with me! I’m rejoicing night and day as I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me.

2.

Once my heart was full of sin, once I had no peace within, Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree; Then I fell down at his feet, and there came a peace so sweet; Now the Comforter abides with me.

He abides, he abides; Hallelujah, he abides with me! I’m rejoicing night and day as I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me.

3.

He is with me everywhere, and he knows my every  care; I’m as happy as a bird and just as free; For the Spirit has control; Jesus satisfies my soul, Since the Comforter abides with me.

He abides, he abides; Hallelujah, he abides with me! I’m rejoicing night and day as I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me.

4.

There’s no thirsting for the things of the world: they’ve taken wings; Long ago I gave them up, and instantly All my night was turned to day, all my burdens rolled away; Now the Comforter abides with me.

He abides, he abides; Hallelujah, he abides with me!  I’m rejoicing night and day as I walk the narrow way, For the Comforter abides with me.
