1. Let the world forsake me and my friends abhor me,
I will look to Jesus, Him alone.
He will bear and lead me, by His hand uphold me,
Saying “You are Mine, My own.”
CHORUS
My Jesus never, never, never lets me down
Hid in Him, I feel secure
No matter if people reject me; unjustly on me frown;
For my Jesus I’ll all endure.
2. Those I loved may leave me, those I trusted fail me,
I will trust in Jesus, Him alone.
Comforter within me, strengthens and revives me,
Saying “All your griefs I’ve known.”
3. Trials hard may press me none come near to help me;
Suffer I’ll for Jesus though alone;
He will never leave me comfortless and lonely,
Faithful He is e’er my own.
4. By His love He forms me, in His path He draws me,
Him I’ve kept before me, none I’ll fear,
Compassed high with mountains, but Jerusalem be
I shall rest unmoved in cheer.
5. Paracelete within me, every step will guide me,
Comforting and teaching all my way;
Though by stress I’m weakened, still in me His glory
And His pow’r reveals all day.
