I’ll Go with Thee!

lyricist: Alpheus Sembower, 1899
Composer: Wesley Hughes

My anx­ious soul from doubts and fears

May not be al­ways free

But thro’ life’s dark­est days and years

It is enough for me

To hear my gra­cious mas­ter say

Fear not

I’ll go with thee!

Go down the way the Mas­ter leads

Although it dark may be

For all His pro­mis­es are sure

And He will go

yes

He will go with thee!

There may be times when clouds o’er­spread

The sky that hangs o’er me;

There may be hours of fear and dread

Yes

there will sure­ly be;

But cheer­ing words I hear Him speak

Fear not

I’ll go with thee!

There hangs

per­haps

a sha­dow now

Thro’ which I can­not see

But in the gath’ring gloom I’ll bow

To Him the sup­pli­ant knee

And hear His an­swer to my pray­er:

Fear not

I’ll go with thee!

Ah! yes

His pro­mise is my own

My mas­ter speaks to me:

He bids me trust in Him alone

And wait His grace to see:

His promise is for­ev­er good

Fear not

I’ll go with thee!
