12633. He Never Has Left Me Alone

1 Since I gave to Jesus
My poor broken heart,
He never has left me alone;
Since I for the homeland
Eternal did start,
He never has left me alone.

Refrain:
He never has left me alone,
No, He never has left me alone;
By night and by day
He is with me alway,
He never has left me alone.

2 Tho’ winding and heavy
The road may appear,
He never has left me alone;
The day may be dismal,
The night may be drear,
He never has left me alone. [Refrain]

3 When sorrow has taken
My heart by surprise,
He never has left me alone;
In tenderness wiping
The tears from mine eyes,
He never has left me alone. [Refrain]

4 I’ll tell the whole world
As the valley I roam,
He never has left me alone;
I’ll tell it through Heaven
When I shall reach home,
He never has left me alone; [Refrain]
