1 He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you
All thro’ the day;
Jesus is near you to keep you from ill,
Jesus is with you, and watching you still;
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
All thro’ the day.

2 He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you
All thro’ the night;
Jesus, the Shepherd, His faithful one keeps,
He never slumbers, and He never sleeps;
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
All thro’ the night.

3 He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you
All thro’ the years;
Crowning each day with His kindness and love,
Leading you on to the bright home above;
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
All thro’ the years.

4 He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you
All thro’ your life;
Nothing can alter His love for His own,
He will not leave you one moment alone;
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
He will take care of you,
All thro’ your life.
