In Jesus I Abide

Published by Family Friend Poems February 2020 with permission of the Author.

No matter what happens in my life,
Sorrow or joy, rain or shine,
Whatever befalls me, it's all right
Because in Jesus I abide.

With His presence, He shelters me
From many dangers all too real.
Like a lamb, He carries me
Over steep hill and stormy sea.

In the midst of pain and hurt,
When I feel confused and stirred,
To Jesus I can always turn
And find solace in His Word.

His is the only voice I hear,
So familiar and so dear.
I know that I can trust in Him,
So to Him alone I cling.

Jesus keeps me from going astray;
I'll always follow in His way.
Forever loved, secure and safe,
I stand in His amazing grace.
