Hymn 395
It may be in the valley
- mp It may be in the valley,
where countless dangers hide;
It may be in the sunshine,
that I in peace abide:
But this one thing I know,
mp If it be dark or fair,
mf If Jesus is with me,
I'll go anywhere!
mf If Jesus goes with me,
I'll go.... anywhere!
'Tis heaven to me.
Where'er I may be
If He is there!
I count it a privilege here....
His cross to bear;
If Jesus goes with me,
I'll go anywhere!
- It may be I must carry
the blessed word of life
Across the burning deserts
to those in sinful strife;
And though it be my lot '
to bear my colours there,
If Jesus goes with me,
I'll go anywhere!
- mf But if it be my portion
to bear my cross at home.
While others bear their
burdens' beyond the billow's foam.
I'll prove my faith in Him -
confess His judgments fair.
And if He stay with me,
I'll stay anywhere!
- mf It is not mine to question
the judgments of my Lord,
It is but mine to follow
the leadings of His Word;
But If I go or stay,
or whether here or there,
I'll be with my Saviour,
content anywhere!
