81. Jesus for Me

1 Jesus, my Saviour, is all things to me,
Oh, what a wonderful Saviour is he;
Guiding, protecting, o'er life's rolling sea,
Mighty Deliv'rer Jesus for me.

Chorus:
Jesus for me,
Jesus for me,
All the time, ev'rywere,
Jesus for me.

2 Jesus in sickness, and Jesus in health,
Jesus in poverty, comfort or wealth,
Sunshine or tempest, whatever it be,
He is my safety; Jesus for me. [Chorus]

3 He is my Refuge, my Rock, and my Tower,
He is my Fortress, my Strength and my power;
Life Everlasting, my Day'sman is he,
Blessed Redeemer Jesus for me. [Chorus]

4 He is my Prophet, my Priest and my King,
He is my Bread of Life, Fountain and Spring;
Bright Sun of Righteousness, Daystar is he,
Horn of Salvation Jesus for me. [Chorus]

5 Jesus in sorrow, in joy, or in pain,
Jesus my Treasure in loss or in gain;
Constant companion, where'er I may be,
Living or dying Jesus for me! [Chorus]
