Leaning on the Everlasting Arms
V1
What a fellowship, what a joy divine!
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine!
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
V2
O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
O how bright the path grows from day to day,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
V3
What have I do dread? What have I to fear?
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
CH
Leaning, leaning, Safe and secure from all alarms; Leaning, leaning, Leaning on the everlasting arms.
David Crowder Version
V1
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus
Just to take him at his word
Just to rest upon his promise
And to know, "Thus saith the Lord."
CH
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust him!
How I've proved him o'er and o'er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust him more!
V2
O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust his cleansing blood
Just in simple faith to plunge me
'neath the healing, cleansing flood!
V3
Yes, tis sweet to trust in Jesus
Just from sin and self to cease
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest, and joy and peace
V4
I'm so glad I learned to trust thee
Precious Jesus, Savior, friend
And I know that thou art with me
Wilt be with me to the end
