[Intro]
In the quiet of my heart I whisper Your name
Jesu Almasi, my guide through the night
[Verse 1]
You are the shepherd of the bound soul, the doors that set me free
In every storm, Your canaan light leads me to still waters near
When fear encamps around, I hear Your gentle call, Come near
And I bow, for You alone are my refuge and my all-sufficiency
[Chorus]
Praise be to You, Lord Jesus, my Savior and my guide
Within Your arms I find rescue, within Your love I reside
King of eternal glory, You reign over every heart
Conqueror of sorrow, in You I find my strongest part
[Verse 2]
Confines of my soul crumble at the sound of Your voice
Your word is a shepherd’s staff that blesses and corrects my choice
In hardship You comfort me, Your mercy lights the way
I lift my hands and my heart, for You are my dawn after the night-tide gray
[Pre-Chorus]
O Lord, lead me closer, I long to walk Your holy road
Let Your truth be my armor, let Your grace be my stronghold
[Chorus]
Praise be to You, Lord Jesus, my Savior and my guide
Within Your arms I find rescue, within Your love I reside
King of eternal glory, You reign over every heart
Conqueror of sorrow, in You I find my strongest part
[Bridge]
You are the shepherd, I am the flock awaiting Your voice
Keep me in Your pasture, Lord, in Your gentleness I rejoice
[Chorus]
Praise be to You, Lord Jesus, my Savior and my guide
Within Your arms I find rescue, within Your love I reside
King of eternal glory, You reign over every heart
Conqueror of sorrow, in You I find my strongest part
[Outro]
Forever I will praise Your holy name, my rock and my stay
Jesu Almasi, forever near, my soul’s eternal way
