1 “I am with you,” fainting pilgrim,
Onward go without a fear;
Face the foe in ev’ry conflict
Jesus stands, to help and cheer.

Refrain:
Blessed promise,
“I am with you all the day;”
Blessed promise,
Give him endless praise.

2 “I am with you,” crown’d with flowers,
You will find the chast’ning rod,
Pav’d with blessings is the pathway,
Leading up to home and God. [Refrain]

3 O the gladness of the promise,
“I am with you all the days;”
Calmly lean upon the Saviour,
Make your life a song of praise. [Refrain]

Telegraph, however, it was not until she was a widow with eight children to support that she started writing in earnest. She wrote articles, librettos, nature stories and other works, as well as hymns.
