Lyrics

I am hap­py now in Je­sus,
He has washed me white as snow;
Now I’m rest­ing on His pro­mise—
Everywhere I’ll with you go.

Refrain

I’ll be with you, I’ll be with you,
Everywhere, where’er you go.

Hallelujah! I’m re­joic­ing,
For my Sav­ior’s voice I know.

How my soul will leap for glad­ness,
When my Je­sus I will see,
And I’ll reign with Him for­ev­er,
All through­out eter­ni­ty!

Refrain

When the pear­ly gates swing op­en,
And the an­gels’ faces see,
Then we’ll hear our Sav­ior say­ing,
Welcome, child—I died for thee.
