I KNOW WHERE TO GO

by Betty Jo Mings

I know where to go when I’m hurting.
I know where to go when I’m sad.
I go to the source of all comfort,
The best friend that I’ve ever had.

He tells me He’ll never forsake me,
And always will hear when I call.
He steadies my heart when I tremble,
And holds me close, lest I should fall.

I never could manage without Him;
My Jesus, my Savior, my Friend.
None other can fill my deep longings,
And so, on His Name I depend.

Whenever I feel a deep burden,
My heart is assured as I pray
That no matter what should befall me,
He’ll see that it turns out okay.

I pray you will trust in my Jesus;
His love and forgiveness to know,
So when all life’s troubles assail you,
You, too, will know right where to go.
