How Can I Be Lonely?

One is walking with me over life's uneven way,
Constantly supporting me each moment of the day;
How can I be lonely when such fellowship is mine,
With my blessed Lord divine!

How can I be lonely
When I've Jesus only to be my companion and unfailing guide?
Why should I be weary,
Or my path seem dreary,
When He's walking by my side!

Days may bring their burdens and their trials as I go,
But my Lord is near and helps to make them lighter grow,
Life may have its crosses or its losses, or increase,
Jesus meets them all with peace.

How can I be lonely
When I've Jesus only to be my companion and unfailing guide?
Why should I be weary,
Or my path seem dreary,
When He's walking by my side!

--Tabernacle Hymns #61 vs. 1-2
