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.
