Be my staple and my stay

Jesus help through each day

as I walk this weary way

upon my soul





and when judgement falls to me

through my saviour shall I be

given peace eternally

upon my soul





upon my soul

upon my free and joyous soul

given peace eternally

upon my soul





Jesus shine your light on me

shine with love and charity

that I might help brothers see

upon my soul





For temptation let me ply

be my wings, Lord, be my eyes

guard me when old Satan's nigh

upon my soul





upon my soul

upon my free and joyous soul

guard me when old Satan's nigh

upon my soul





I shall fill each earhly day

with the singing of his praise

follow in his holy ways

upon my soul





and when I lay my troubles down

on my brow he'll place a crown

and the trumpets all shall sound

upon my soul





upon my soul

upon my free and joyous soul

and the trumpets all shall sound

upon my soul
