MY LORD AND I

MY LORD AND I
.
I HAVE A FRIEND SO PRECIOUS,
SO VERY DEAR TO ME,!
HE LOVES ME WITH SUCH TENDER LOVE,
HE LOVES SO FAITHFULLY;
I COULD NOT LIVE APART FROM HIM,
I LOVE TO FEEL HIM NIGH,
AND SO WE DWELL TOGETHER,
.
MY LORD AND I.
.
SOMETIMES I,M FAINT AND WEARY,
HE KNOWS THAT I AM WEAK,
AND AS HE BIDS ME LEAN ON HIM.
HIS HELP I GLADLY SEEK;
HE LEADS ME IN THE PATHS OF LIGHT
BENEATH A SUNNY SKY,
AN SO WALK TOGETHER,
.
MY LORD AND I
