- 1Jesus is all the world to me,My life, my joy, my all;He is my strength from day to day,Without Him I would fall.When I am sad, to Him I go,No other one can cheer me so;When I am sad, He makes me glad,He's my friend.
- 2Jesus is all the world to me,my friend in trials sore;I go to Him for blessings andHe gives them ov'r and o'er.He sends the sunshine and the rain,He sends the harvest's golden grain;Sunshine and rain, harvest of grain,He's my friend.
- 3Jesus is all the world to me,and true to Him I'll be;O how could I this friend deny,when He's so true to me?Following Him I know I'm right,He watches o'er me day and night;Following Him, by day and night,He's my friend.
- 4Jesus is all the world to me,I want no better friend;I trust Him now, I'll trust Him whenLife's fleeting days shall end.Beautiful life with such a friend;beautiful life that has no end;Eternal life, eternal joy,He's my friend.
