1 Joyful I sing as I journey each day;
All the way long it is Jesus;
Safe while he leads me, I never shall stray;
All the way long it is Jesus.

Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus,
All the way long it is Jesus;
Jesus, Jesus,
All the way long it is Jesus.

2 Tho’ I am tempted and sorrow-oppressed,
All the way long it is Jesus;
Still I can trust him his spirit gives rest;
All the way long it is Jesus. [Refrain]

3 Nothing shall sever my Saviour from me;
All the way long it is Jesus;
Soon in its beauty his face I shall see;
All the way long it is Jesus. [Refrain]

4 There I shall sing on that beautiful strand;
All the way long it is Jesus;
There in the presence of Christ I shall stand;
All the way long it is Jesus. [Refrain]
