When I need Thee most
You are beside me;
Guiding and comforting my soul
How could I ever want more?

When I am afraid,
You soothe and I am calm.
Like a wind sweeping away snow,
You sweep my mind and my eyes are opened.

When I am downcast,
You lift my spirit and console me,
Thy love washes over me,
And my joy is restored.

When I am lonely
You are by my side;
Making me feel at home,
Soothing me with your words of love.
