"if Jesus goes with me..."

"... I'll go, anywhere!"

We were very humbled and blessed by the support shown to us this evening by our church family. As we lifted our voices together in praise, it seemed that every song held special meaning for this transition in our lives. We are so grateful for the love that is in the church. To God be the glory!

"It may be in the valley where countless dangers hide
It may be in the sunshine that I in peace abide.
But this one thing I know, if it be dark or fair
If Jesus is with me, I'll go anywhere!

It may be I must carry the blessed Word of life
Across the burning deserts to those in sinful strife.
And though it be my lot to bear my colors there
If Jesus goes with me, I'll go anywhere!

But if it be my portion to bear my cross at home,
While others bear their burdens beyond the billows' foam
I'll prove my faith in Him - confess His judgements fair
If Jesus stays with me, I'll stay anywhere!

It is not mine to question the judgement of my Lord,
It is but mine to follow the leadings of His word
But if to go or stay, or whether here or there
I'll be, with my Savior, content anywhere!

If Jesus goes with me, I'll go - anywhere!
'Tis heaven to me, where'er I may be, if He is there.
I count it a privilege here, His cross to bear
If Jesus goes with me, I'll go - anywhere!"

If Jesus Goes With Me, Charles A. Miles

No matter where we are serving - whether here or there - we are so thankful for the leading of our Lord!
