Sonbranch Music - Jesus, Be With Me Today

Jesus, Be With Me Today is a testimony of a life's spiritual journey from childhood to trusting in Jesus Christ.

Verse 1
When I was a little child
Jesus seemed so far away
Others knew but I would pray
Did You die for me that day?

Verse 2
As the years began to flow
Scared and bound by self-control
Hiding from my true inside
Masked behind a wall of pride

Chorus
Jesus be with me today
Hold me close for eternity
Jesus be with me today
Always close, I pray

Verse 3
Empty longing in my heart
Worldly pleasures all fell short
Turning, trusting in Your Word
Gave myself to Christ the Lord!

Verse 4
Serving Christ, the righteous path
Moving onward from the past
Yielding all, my heart and soul
Jesus loves me this I know

Chorus

Verse 5
As life turns to suffering
And the darkness presses in
I will look upon that cross
Knowing Jesus paid the cost

Chorus

Verse 6
Hope renewed, abundant life
Through the greatest sacrifice
When the world doubts I will say:
Jesus died for me that day!

Chorus (x2)

Always close, I pray
Always close, I pray
