The Majestic Hymnal, number two ‎#74

74. For Me He Careth

1 Yes, for me, for me He careth,
With loving, tender care;
Yes, with me, with me He shareth
Each burden and each fear.

Refrain:
Yes, o'er me, o'er me He watcheth,
Ceaseless watcheth night and day;
Yes, e'en me, e'en me He snatcheth
From perils of the way.

2 Yes, for me, He standeth pleading
At the mercy's seat above,
Ever for me interceding,
In love, untiring love.

Refrain:
Yes, in me abroad He sheddeth
Joys unearthly, love and light;
And to cover me He spreadeth
His loving wings of might.

3 Yes, in me, He dwelleth!
In me and I in Him,
And my soul with hope He filleth,
Tho' future plans are dim.

Refrain:
Thus I wait for His returning,
Singing all the way to heav'n;
Such the joyful song of morning,
Such tranquil song of ev'n.
