Lonely? No, not lonely
While Jesus standeth by.
His presence always cheers me;
I know that He is nigh.
Friendless ? No, not friendless,
For Jesus is my friend.
I change, but He remaineth
True, faithful to the end.
Tired ?No, not tired
While leaning on His breast;
My soul hath full enjoyment
Of His eternal rest.
Helpless ? Yes, so helpless !
But I am leaning hard
Upon the arm of Jesus,
And He is keeping guard.
Waiting? Oh yes, waiting;
He bids me watch and wait.
I only wonder often
What makes my Lord so late.
Happy ?Yes, so happy,
With joy too deep for words;
A precious, sure possession,
A joy that is my Lord's.
