Lyrics

My dear Jesus I need you by my side everyday I cannot travel on this way alone I'll confess that I tried by myself to no avail Without you I fear I have failed My Jesus, my Jesus Hold to my hand For no longer, alone can I stand I'll confess that I trusted in myself much too long My Jesus won't you lead me safely home Self sufficient in all things had been my philosophy I know now that this could never be My mere deeds at their best could be counted not but lost Now I must go in through the cross
