He Will Meet Us by the Way

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1873
Composer: Howard Doane

In the jour­ney of life

When trou­bled thoughts arise

Like the bil­lows up­on the sea

Let us look un­to Him whose

Tender

lov­ing arm

Our pre­sent help will be.

He will meet us by the way

Yes

He’ll meet us by the way

And our hearts with burn with love

When we think of the joy

the

Never end­ing rest

For us pre­pared above.

He will cheer as He cheered

His faith­ful ones of old

When they mourned for their ab­sent Lord

And com­mune with His child­ren

Walking in the path

He taught them in His word.

O the peace that will come

Like ear­ly morn­ing dew

When in sec­ret we kneel in pray­er

And the door of the soul to

All the world is closed

With on­ly Jesus there!
