1
Jesus, my Savior, You are my good and loving Friend,
ever sweet and unchanging.
Yesterday, today, and forever, You remain the same,
and You are here with me in this world.
2
When I am in pain and suffering,
You will come to help me.
I will not be afraid anymore.
One day I will understand
that everything You allowed in my life
was part of Your good and loving care.
3
Lord, You know the burdens of my life
more deeply than anyone else.
When I am going through painful trials,
whom else could I lean on
if not You?
4
When the great waves of this world's sea
crash against me with all their force,
You lovingly support me
with the hands that were pierced by the nails.
5
When will You come to take away
all my sorrows and troubles?
That is the hope I hold onto.
On that day, all my sorrow will disappear,
and I will live with You forever.
