Just Where Thou Art

lyricist: Kate Drew, 1920
Composer: Robert Harkness

When life per­plex­es thee

When ev­il vex­es thee

Lift up thy heart;

Nothing thou need­est fear

Jesus thy Lord is near

He will sup­port and cheer

Just where thou art.

Leave not thy post to find

Peace for thy trou­bled mind

Lift up thy heart;

Strong in His ho­ly name

Victor o’er sin and shame

Power ov­er Sa­tan claim

Just where thou art.

When no temp­ta­tions press

Watch thou

and none­the­less

Lift up thy heart;

Stand on the Mas­ter’s side

And in His love ab­ide

Trustful and sa­tis­fied

Just where thou art.

Then shall His Spir­it’s grace

Make thee His dwell­ing-place

Glow in thy heart;

And from those eyes of thine

Out on the world will shine

Light of His life di­vine

Just where thou art.
