Awakening Songs for the Church, Sunday School and Evangelistic Services ‎#148

148. I Am With You

1 When the morn of splendor breaking
Scatters blessing all the way,
And our souls from slumber waking,
Hail with joy the golden day,

Refrain:
It is sweet to look away to Jesus,
And His gracious words attend,
And to hear Him ever sweetly saying:
“I am with you to the end!”

2 When the clouds of sorrow gather,
O’er us bends a frowning sky,
And we sometimes fear the Father
Does not hear us when we cry, [Refrain]

3 When the storms of life assail us,
All our blessed sunlight flown,
And the friends we trusted fail us,
Leaving us to walk alone, [Refrain]

4 When we reach the silent river,
Pass its chilling waters through,
Scenes of earth recede forever,
Heav’n is opening to our view, [Refrain]
