Constantly Abiding

Composer: Anne Murphy, 1908

There’s a peace in my heart

That the world nev­er gave

A peace it can­not take away;

Though the tri­als of life

May sur­round like a cloud

I’ve a peace that has come here to stay!

Constantly abid­ing

Je­sus is mine;

Constantly abid­ing

rap­ture di­vine;

He nev­er leaves me lone­ly

Whispers

O so kind:

I will nev­er leave thee

Je­sus is mine.

All the world seemed to sing

Of a Sav­ior and king

When peace sweet­ly came to my heart;

Troubles all fled away

And my night turned to day

Blessèd Je­sus

how glo­ri­ous Thou art!

This trea­sure I have

In a tem­ple of clay

While here on His foot­stool I roam;

But He’s com­ing to take

Me some glo­ri­ous day

Over there to my heav­en­ly home!
