It may be in the valley

Where countless dangers hide,

It may be in the sunshine

that I in peace abide

But this one thing I know,

If it be dark or fair

If Jesus is with me,

I’ll go anywhere!

It may be I must carry

the blessed word of life

Across the burning deserts

to those in sinful strife;

And though it be my lot

to bear my colours there

If Jesus goes with me

I’ll go anywhere!

But if it be my portion

to bear my cross at home

While others bear their burdens

beyond the billow’s foam

I’ll prove my faith in Him

confess His judgments fair

And if He stays with me,

I'll stay anywhere!

It is not mine to question

the judgments of my Lord;

It is but mine to follow

the leadings of His Word;

But if I go or stay,

or whether here or there

I’ll be with my Saviour,

content anywhere!
