Leaning on the everlasting arms

What a fellowship, what a joy divine

Leaning on the everlasting arms

What a blessedness, what a peace is mine

Leaning on the everlasting arms

 

    Leaning, leaning

    Safe and secure from all alarms

    Leaning, leaning

    Leaning on the everlasting arms

 

O how sweet to walk in the pilgrim way

Leaning on the everlasting arms

O how bright the path grows from day to day

Leaning on the everlasting arms

 

* Refrain

 

What have I to dread, what have I to fear

 Leaning on the everlasting arms

I have blessed peace with my Lord so near

Leaning on the everlasting arms

 

* Refrain
