IRIS DEMENT
"Leaning On The Everlasting Arms"
(Elisha A. Hoffman / A. J. Showalter)

What a fellowship, what a joy divine
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine
Leaning on the everlasting arms

[Chorus:]
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms;
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms

Oh how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
Oh how bright the path grows from day to day
Leaning on the everlasting arms

[Chorus]

What have I to dread, what have I to fear
Leaning on the everlasting arms?
I have blessed peace with my lord so near
Leaning on the everlasting arms

[Chorus]
