When I get down and lonely
And it seems that no one’s there
Well, I ought to know better
‘Cause I know You’ll always care
When I get down and feelin’ blue
I’ve just got to keep my eyes fixed on You
If I do, I know that I will always be
Safe in Your security
I’ve heard people talkin’
Sayin’ bad things about me
But I’ll just keep on walkin’
And keep tellin’ them about the Tree
‘Cause I know there is a heaven up above
A Savior who has filled me with His love
Even when the light’s a little dim
He wants me to put my trust in Him
When the road gets long
And my courage disappears
You remind me once again
You’ve been faithful through the years
I may stumble now and then
But I’ll never walk alone
Every step that brings me closer
Leads me safely home
When I get down and lonely
And it seems that no one’s there
I’ll remember what You’ve promised
And I’ll find You waiting there
When I get down and feelin’ blue
I’ll keep my eyes fixed on You
If I do, I know that I will always be
Safe in Your security
