Gather with the Faithful

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1898
Composer: George Kirkpatrick

Joy in my sad­ness

hope in my tears;

Now let Thy pre­sence ban­ish all my fears.

Lo

I am wait­ing

here at Thy throne;

O my Re­deem­er

leave me not alone.

Wherever I may go

wher­ev­er I may be

Thou in whom I trust

O still abide with me;

Keep this heart of mine

And hide my life with Thine

That I may ga­ther with the faith­ful.

Come when the morn­ing breaks on my sight;

Come in the noon­tide

love­ly

calm and bright;

Come when the day-beams gent­ly have flown;

O my Re­deem­er

leave me not alone.

Star of the wea­ry

rise on my way;

Where Thou art lead­ing

joy­ful I ob­ey.

When

o’er life’s ocean

storm bil­lows foam

O my Re­deem­er

safe­ly bear me home.
