1. I’m rejoicing night and day,
    As I walk the pilgrim way,
    For the hand of God in all my life I see,
    And the reason of my bliss,
    Yes, the secret all is this ;
    That the Comforter abides with me.
   
            CHORUS

    He abides......He abides......
    Hallelujah, He abides with me !
    I’m rejoicing night and day,
    As I walk the narrow way,
    For the Comforter abides with me.

2. Once my heart was full of sin,
    Once I had no peace within,
    Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree :
    Then I fell down at His feet,
    And there came a peace so sweet,
    Now the Comforter abides with me.

3. He is with me everywhere,
    And He knows my every care,
    I’m as happy as a bird and just as free ;
    For the Spirit has control,
    Jesus satisfies my soul,
    Since the Comforter abides with me.

4. There’s no thirsting for the things
    Of the world — they’ ve taken wings ;
    Long ago I gave them up, and instantly,
    All my night was turned to day,
    All my burdens rolled away,
    Now the Comforter abides with me.
