Author: Charles Walker Ray Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11566 First Line: Jesus all my grief is sharing Lyrics: 1 Jesus all my grief is sharing, He my mansion is preparing, When I’m trembling and despairing, He will ever hear my call; When the storms are round me sweeping, Tho’ in helplessness I’m sleeping, I am safe in His own keeping, This to me is best of all: Best of all, best of all, I am safe in His own keeping, This to me is best of all. 2 Jesus loves and watches o’er me, When astray He will restore me; Angel guards He sends before me, Lest in fatal snares I fall; With His friends He hath enrolled me, By His might He will uphold me, In His arms He will enfold me, This to me is best of all: Best of all, best of all, In His arms He will enfold me, This to me is best of all. 3 Jesus loves, and He will guide me, All I need He will provide me, In His bosom He will hide me, When the woes of life appall; He will hear my feeblest sighing, Needful grace to me supplying, He’ll be with me when I’m dying, This to me is best of all: Best of all, best of all, He’ll be with me when I’m dying, This to me is best of all.
