542. If Jesus Goes with Me

1 It may be in the valley,
Where countless dangers hide;
It may be in the sunshine
That I, in peace abide;
But this one thing I know-
If it be dark or fair,
If Jesus is with me,
I’ll go anywhere!

Refrain:
If Jesus goes with me, I’ll go.
Anywhere!
’Tis heaven to me,
Where’er I may be,
If He is there!
I count it a privilege here.
His cross to bear;
If Jesus goes with me, I’ll go-
Anywhere!

2 It may be I must carry
The blessed word of life
Across the burning deserts
To those in sinful strife;
And though it be my lot
To bear my colors there,
If Jesus goes with me,
I’ll go anywhere! [Refrain]

3 But if it be my portion
To bear my cross at home,
While others bear their burdens
Beyond the billow’s foam,
I’ll prove my faith in Him-
Confess His judgments fair,
And, if He stays with me,
I’ll go anywhere! [Refrain]

4 It is not mine to question
The judgments of my Lord,
It is but mine to follow
The leadings of His word;
But if to go or stay,
Or whether here or there,
I’ll be, with my Savior,
Content anywhere! [Refrain]
