What Can I Do Without Jesus?

What can I do with­out Je­sus

When full of life’s bur­dens and care?

His love and pro­tect­ion so pre­cious

I’ll seek ev­ery mo­ment to share.

Oh

yes

I’ll now cling to Je­sus—

To Je­sus I’ll cling and be saved;

I’ll fol­low His foot­steps with glad­ness

Till I see Him in glo­ry ar­rayed.

What can I do with­out Je­sus

When sor­rows un­bid­den arise?

Oh

when I am filled with deep sad­ness

As on­ward I press to the skies.

What can I do with­out Je­sus

When Sa­tan comes in like a flood—

O’erwhelming my soul with dread ang­uish

To draw me away from my God?

What can I do with­out Je­sus

When sick­ness and pain are sev­ere

And earth can no com­fort af­ford me?

Oh

then may my Sav­ior be near.

What can I do with­out Je­sus

When near­ing the dark

chil­ly wave?

Alone I must pass through the sha­dow

If none can be near me to save.
