Jesus Abides in My Heart

Author: M. Louise Smith Hymnal: New Songs of the Gospel #61 (1900) First Line: ‘Twas when I was comfortless, lonely, and sad Refrain First Line: O, yes! He abides in my heart Lyrics: 1 ‘Twas when I was comfortless, lonely, and sad, My soul fill’d with yearning for rest, That Jesus took up his abode in my heart, A joy-giving, comforting guest. Refrain: O, yes! He abides in my heart, And nevermore will he depart; My life is all brightness and peace, For Jesus abides in my heart. 2 If only I’d known what a blessing would come, By serving this guest so divine, Years since I’d have open’d the door of my heart, And said, “Lord, come in! I am thine.” [Refrain] 3 No songs of bright hope and of peace could I sing, When I was a stranger to him; But now my whole life is one glad sweet refrain, For Jesus has cleans’d me from sin. [Refrain] 4 How sweet the assurance he’ll e’er be my guest! He’ll never, no, never leave me, And ever above, I shall dwell in his love, And glories of heaven shall see. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [‘Twas when I was comfortless, lonely, and sad]
