Jesus Will Be With Me

Author: M. S. Brown Hymnal: Sunday School Voices #92 (1910) First Line: In the day when shadows deepen Refrain First Line: Jesus will be with me,—why should I fear Lyrics: 1 In the day when shadows deepen O’er the pathway which I tread, I shall know my Lord is near me, With his love around me spread; I shall feel his touch most tender On my brow, and hear him say:— “Do not fear, my child, I love thee, I am with thee all the way.” Refrain: Jesus will be with me,—why should I fear? Dangers cannot reach me while he is near; Praise his name forever, he is my friend! Yes, Jesus will be with me unto the end. 2 When I enter that dark valley, Where no friend can go with me; When I hear the breakers beating From the vaster eternity; Just to know that thou art with me, Jesus, Master of the sea, With thy tender smile of welcome, Will my joy forever be. [Refrain] 3 As I reach the golden harbor, And the darkness flees away, Heaven’s angels there will bid me Welcome to eternal day; Earthly sorrows all forgotten, Trials, sin, and darkness o’er, With the children’s voices singing Heaven’s joys forevermore. [Refrain] 4 When I stand in that fair city, With the dear ones who are there, And receive my crown of beauty, May my Lord its glory share; For ‘twas he, in old Judea, Suffered death and cruel shame; Then let heaven sing his glory, And the angels praise his name! [Refrain] Topics: Fellowship; Promises Languages: English Tune Title: [In the day when shadows deepen]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[In the day when shadows deepen]" in Sunday School Voices Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
