First Line: Yes, for me, for me He careth,

Yes, for me, for me He careth,
With a brother's tender care;
Yes, with me, with me He shareth
Every burden, every fear.

Thus I wait . . for His returning,
Singing all . . the way to heaven ;
Such the joy - - ful song of morning,
Such the tran - - quil song of even.

2 Yes, for me He standeth pleading
At the mercy-seat above,
Ever for me interceding,
Constant in untiring love.

3 Yea, in me abroad He sheddeth
Joys unearthly, love, and light ;
And to cover me He spreadeth
His paternal wing of might.

4 Yes, in me, in me He dwelleth ;
I in Him, and He in me;
And my empty soul He filleth
Here and through eternity.
