Christ will ever watch you, and protect from harm,

He near you stands, with mighty hands

To ward off each temptation;

To Jesus fly; he’s ever nigh,

The Rock of your Salvation.

5 Let not death alarm you, shrink not from his blow;

For your God shall arm you, and victory bestow,

For death shall bring to you no sting,

The grave no desolation:

’Tis sweet to die with Jesus nigh,
