Author: David J. Beattie Hymnal: Rodeheaver's Gospel Solos and Duets #59 (1925) First Line: Stay Thou near by! Whom have I, Lord, but Thee Lyrics: 1 Stay Thou near by! Whom have I, Lord, but Thee?
Earth’s dearest friends may change—their love grow cold;
O Savior, Lord, Thou’rt all in all to me,
Thy love’s untold.
2 Stay Thou near by! I dare not tread alone
The thorny path that once Thy feet didst tread;
Safe shall I be with Thee to lean upon,
And by Thee led.
3 Stay Thou near by! Life’s journey soon will end;
Mine eyes are dim, I cannot see my way
O tho’t supreme! From earth I shall ascend
To brighter day.
