Words (except public domain portions) and Music by Darcy L. Watkins
Verse 1
What a fellowship, what a joy divine
I’m leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine,
I’m leaning on the everlasting arms.
I’m safe and secure from all alarms,
I’m leaning leaning on the everlasting arms of the Lord.
Verse 2
O how sweet to walk, in this pilgrim way,
I’m leaning on the everlasting arms;
O how bright the path (it) grows from day to day,
I’m leaning on the everlasting arms.
I’m safe and secure from all alarms,
I’m leaning leaning on the everlasting arms of the Lord.

What have I to dread, what have I to fear,
