Alone with Jesus (Barner) (#47) | Emily Barner, 1911
Alone with Jesus, ’tis so sweet
To worship at His lovely feet,
To raise our hearts in grateful praise,
For all His wondrous works and ways.
Alone with Jesus in the storm,
He’ll keep us from all fear and harm
If we but trust Him day by day,
Although it be a stormy way.
Alone with Jesus, all is well,
Beneath His smile my soul would dwell;
O Lord, how sweet to know and feel
Thy love and Thy eternal seal!
Alone with Jesus; to express
The perfect peace we here possess
An angel’s tongue might well employ;
Alone with Jesus, oh, what joy!
Alone with Jesus, hour by hour,
Preserved by His almighty pow’r;
And when the storms of life are o’er,
With Him we’ll dwell forevermore.
