Yes, for Me He Careth

Yes

for me

for me He car­eth

With a bro­ther’s ten­der care;

Yes with me

with me He shar­eth

Every bur­den

ev­ery fear.

Yes

o’er me

o’er me He watch­eth

Ceaseless watch­eth

night and day;

Yes

e’en me

e’en me He snatch­eth

From the pe­rils of the way.

Yes for me He stand­eth plead­ing

At the mer­cy seat ab­ove;

Ever for me in­te­rced­ing

Constant in un­tir­ing love.

Yes

in me

in me He dwell­eth;

I in Him

and He in me!

And my emp­ty soul He fill­eth

Here and through eter­ni­ty.
