63. Jesus in My Heart

1 I have Jesus dwelling with me
Ev'ry hour of ev'ry day,
So whatever may befall me,
"All is well," my heart can say.

Chorus:
Jesus, blessed Jesus
Dwells within my heart,
In the temple for His dwelling set apart;
I can ne'er be lonely,
I have Jesus only,
Jesus, blessed Jesus in my heart.

2 Tho' my pathway leads thro' shadows,
I can hear His voice divine,
And can feel the loving handclasp
Of a Father's hand on mine. [Chorus]

3 In this world of living pleasure
"Jesus only" would I know;
Satisfied His steps to follow,
And His great salvation know. [Chorus]
