1 There’s a place I love to tarry,
When my soul is sad, oppressed,
‘Tis alone with Christ my Saviour,
Where He bids me “Come and rest.”

Refrain:
Just to be alone with Jesus,
Just to hear Him softly say:
“Fear not, though the world forsake you,
Lo I’m with you alway.”

2 When the cares of life are heavy,
And beneath my cross I bend;
Then I go alone with Jesus,
For He is my dearest Friend. [Refrain]

3 When the tempter would assail me,
Jesus bids me to Him flee;
He’s my Refuge, Friend and Saviour,
He is all in all to me. [Refrain]
