Jesus Is All the World to Me
Author: Will L. Thompson Meter: Irregular Appears in 303 hymnals Matching Instances: 193 Lyrics: 1 Jesus 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.
2 Jesus is all the world to me,
My Friend in trials sore;
I go to Him for blessings,
and He gives them o'er 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.
3 Jesus 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.
4 Jesus is all the world to me,
I want no better friend;
I trust Him now, I'll trust Him when
Life'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.

Will L. Thompson
1847 - 1909 Author of "Jesus Is All the World to Me" in Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) Will Lamartine Thompson (1847-1909)
Born: November 7, 1847, East Liverpool, Ohio.
Died: September 20, 1909, New York, New York.
Buried: Riverview Cemetery, East Liverpool, Ohio.
Rebuffed in an early attempt to sell his songs to a commercial publisher, Thompson started his own publishing company. He later expanded, opening a store to sell pianos, organs and sheet music. Both a lyricist and composer, he ensured he would always remember words or melodies that came to him at odd times:
"No matter where I am, at home or hotel, at the store or traveling, if an idea or theme comes to me that I deem worthy of a song, I jot it down in verse. In this way I never lose it."
Thompson took ill during a tour of Europe, and his family cut short their travels to return home. He died a few weeks later.
