49. I must have the Saviour with me

1. I must have the Saviour with me,

   For I dare not walk alone;

   I must feel His presence near me,

   And His arm around me thrown.

   Then my soul shall fear no ill,

   Let Him lead me where He will;

   I will go without a murmur,

   And His footsteps follow still.

2. I must have the Saviour with me,

   For my faith, at best, is weak;

   He can whisper words of comfort

   That no other voice can speak.

3. I must have the Saviour with me,

   And His eye the way must guide,

   Till I reach the vale of Jordan,

   Till I cross the rolling tide.
