Lyrics

I am guided on the way,
I shall reach the perfect day,
I can ne­ver faint or fall,
Jesus ever hears my call.

Refrain

O the name, so sweet, so dear,
Trusting hearts to bless and cheer,
In it all my hope I rest—
In its promise I am blest.

This is all that I can claim,
Trust in His redeeming name,
In His power to save and bless,
In His perfect right­eous­ness.

Refrain

I have cast on Him my care,
He will all my burdens bear,
He will every need supply,
He is ever watching nigh.

Refrain

I am singing as I go,
I can only rapture know,
Knowing that the Lord is mine,
Fills my soul with joy divine.
