Anywhere with Jesus
Words by Jessie Brown Pounds - 1887
Verses 3 and 4 by Helen Cadbury Alexander - 1915
Music by Daniel Brink Towner - 1887

          Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go,
          Anywhere He leads me in this world below;
          Anywhere without Him dearest joys would fade;
          Anywhere with Jesus I am not afraid.

            Refrain
            Anywhere, anywhere!  Fear I cannot know;
            Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.

          Anywhere with Jesus I am not alone;
          Other friends may fail me, He is still my own;
          Though His hand may lead me over drearest ways,
          Anywhere with Jesus is a house of praise.

            Refrain
            Anywhere, anywhere!  Fear I cannot know;
            Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.

          Anywhere with Jesus, over land and sea,
          Telling souls in darkness of salvation free;
          Ready as He summons me to go or stay,
          Anywhere with Jesus when He points the way.

            Refrain
            Anywhere, anywhere!  Fear I cannot know;
            Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.

          Anywhere with Jesus I can go to sleep,
          When the darkening shadows round about me creep,
          Knowing I shall waken nevermore to roam;
          Anywhere with Jesus will be home, sweet home.

            Refrain
            Anywhere, anywhere!  Fear I cannot know;
            Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go.
