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.
