Iris DeMent
Leaning on the Everlasting Arms
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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]
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms
[Verse 3]
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]
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms
