Jesus is Always There
Someone else feels my pain and grief
Someone comforts as no one else
When others fail, on Him I lean
Jesus is always there
Someone lifts me with His strength
And through the darkness carries me;
Someone lifts me with His strength
And through the darkness carries me;
Someone loves me all the time
All I desire is found in Him
Ever faithful and merciful
Jesus is always there

"The Eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the Everlasting Arms."
~Deuteronomy 33:27
When no one else could understand
The problems that I had
It was Christ… that drew near
When no one else could even help
Untangle all the knots
It was Christ… that stepped in
When no one else had the solution
And all had turned their backs
It was Christ… that took charge
When no one else could keep on trying
And all hope ran dry
It was Christ… who intervened

"...I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." ~Hebrews 13:5
I needed the quiet, so He drew me aside
Into the shadows where we could confide
Away from the bustle where all the day long
I hurried and worried when active and strong.
I needed the quiet, though at first I rebelled.
But gently, so gently, my cross He upheld
And whispered so sweetly of spiritual things
Though weakened in body, my spirit took wings
To heights never dreamed of when active and gay
He loved me so greatly, He drew me away
