He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, D D7 1. He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul; 2. In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tower; 3. While I live by faith and do His blessèd will; G C G 1. The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see 2. I have all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn 3. A wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear, D D7 G G7 1. All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole. 2. From my heart and now He keeps me by His power. 3. From His manna He my hungry soul shall fill. C G 1. In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s my stay; 2. Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore, 3. Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessèd face, D D7 1. He tells me every care on Him to roll. 2. Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal. 3. Where the rivers of delight shall ever roll.
