Representative Text

1 Leaning on the arms of Jesus,
Oh, it is so sweet and precious!
He will surely bless and keep us,
Calmly resting free from care.

Refrain:
Leaning, leaning,
Safely on the arms of Jesus,
I’m leaning, yes, leaning,
Leaning on the arms of Jesus.

2 Leaning on His arms of power,
Jesus is my strong, high tower;
He’s my peace—a constant shower—
He will every need supply. [Refrain]

3 Leaning on His arms, I’m trusting,
What have I to fear? I’m resting;
Jesus is my constant blessing,
He will all my burdens bear. [Refrain]
