Never alone in this earthly way

August 30

Never alone in this earthly way,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares,
I have a Helper each busy day;
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.
Somebody cares when the clouds hang low,
Cares when my heart is o’erwhelmed with woe,
Cares, and is marking my path below;
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.

When I am singing a happy song,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares,
When I am fighting against the wrong,
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.
Somebody cares when I stand alone,
Cares when the pleasures of earth are gone,
Cares when my false hopes with wings have flown;
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.

When I am weary and long for rest,
Somebody cares, Somebody cares,
When by the tempter I’m sorely pressed,
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.
Somebody cares, and, whate’er betide,
Walks ev’ry hour by the Christian’s side;
Love so amazing will e’er abide;
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.

Refrain
Somebody cares for me,
Somebody cares for me;
In all my life His kind hand I see,
Somebody cares-’tis Jesus.
