NEVER ALONE

VERSE 1:
G                              C               G
How many times discouraged, we sink beside the way;
                D7                          G
About us all is darkness, we hardly dare to pray;
                                     C                   G
Then from the mists and shadows, the sweetest voice e'er known,
                      D7                               G
Say, "Child, am I not with thee, never to leave thee a-lone?"

CHORUS:
G                C          G
No, never alone! No never a-lone!
   D7
He promised never to leave me;
                       G
He'll claim me for His own.
                 C          G
No, never alone! No never a-lone!
   D7
He promised never to leave me,
                    G
Never to leave me a-lone!

VERSE 2:
O soul, hast thou forgotten, the tender word and sweet,
Of Him Who left behind Him the print of bleeding feet?
"I never will forsake thee, O child so weary grown;
Remember, I have promised, never to leave thee alone."

(REPEAT CHORUS)

VERSE 3:
Take courage, wayworn pilgrim, tho' mists and shadows hide
The face of Him thou lovest, He's ever at thy side;
Reach out thy hand and find Him, and lo, the clouds have flown;
He smiles on thee Who promised, never to leave thee alone.

(REPEAT CHORUS)
