If you ask me why I’m happy as I journey down life’s road,
Why it is I do not carry on the way a heavy load,
’Tis because my Savior tells me that my burden He’ll receive.
And I believe it, every word I believe.
I believe it, every word I believe,
I receive it, every word I receive;
Jesus tells me my wants He will relieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
We are not allowed to wander thro’ this world without a Guide,
For, to keep our feet from straying, His own Word has been applied,
And we read here that the sentence of a sinner He’ll reprieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
I believe it, every word I believe,
I receive it, every word I receive;
Jesus tells me my wants He will relieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
He informs us for our comfort that thro’ life He’ll be our Friend,
That if we will only trust Him, He’ll go with us to the end,
That His Spirit will be with us while we do not slight nor grieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
I believe it, every word I believe,
I receive it, every word I receive;
Jesus tells me my wants He will relieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
He has told us of a city where the streets are paved with gold,
Where the faithful shall be gathered and their Savior’s face behold,
He has promised at its portals that our souls He will receive,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
I believe it, every word I believe,
I receive it, every word I receive;
Jesus tells me my wants He will relieve,
And I believe it, every word I believe.
