Jesus Is Beside Me

Story Behind The Song

I was out walking one evening, thinking about life and my struggles. I was feeling a little sorry for myself and wondering where Jesus was, when I suddenly realized He was right there beside me - as He has been throughout all of my life's ups and downs.

I call this my "walk to Amaeus" song. We often find ourselves walking along, thinking about our troubles, wondering where Jesus is - just like the disciples on the road to Amaeus, after Jesus was crucified, but before they knew He had risen from the dead

Lyrics

Troubles, I?ve had my share,
And I?m told the answer can be found in a prayer,
At the feet of Jesus Christ, my Lord.
And I know He?s out there somewhere.
So I?m walking, wondering. I?m waiting.
I?m hoping, searching. I?m gazing,
Into the great unknown for my savior,
When suddenly I realize,

Jesus ? is beside me.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine,
Not in the distance, but right here beside me.
Jesus is with me - - all the time.

Troubles don?t last for long.
In your weakness, let Jesus be strong.
Never doubt the faithfulness of Christ, our Lord,
In His presence is where we belong.
No more walking, wondering, no more waiting.
No hoping, searching or gazing,
Into the great unknown for my savior,
For Jesus has opened my eyes.

Jesus ? is beside me.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine,
Not in the distance, but right here beside me.
Jesus is with me - - all the time.

Jesus ? is beside me.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine,
Not in the distance, but right here beside me.
Jesus is with me - - all the time.

Jesus is here. He?s walking right by my side.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine.
He walks beside me every step of the way,
Praise the Lord. He?s opened my eyes.

Jesus is here. He?s walking right by my side.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine.
He walks beside me every step of the way,
Praise the Lord. He?s right by my side.

Praise the Lord. Jesus is mine.
