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

Chorus:
You know I'm leaning on Jesus, I'm leaning on Jesus,
I am safe and secure from all alarms!
Yes, I'm leaning on Jesus, I am leaning on Jesus
I'm leaning on the everlasting arms!

O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,
Leaning on the everlastin' arms;
O how bright the path, said it grows from day to day,
Lean, Leanin' on the everlastin' arms!

(Repeat chorus in background)
You know I'm leaning! Hey, I'm leaning!
Cause I'm safe, and secure from all alarms!
Yeah, I'm leanin', yes I'm leanin,
Leanin', ever leanin' on the everlastin' arms!

Oh! Now what, what have I to dread, what have I to fear,
Leaning on the everlastin' arms?
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,
When I'm leanin' on the everlasting arms.

(Repeat Chorus in background)
Hmm, don't you know I'm leanin', ever leanin' on Jesus!
Well, I'm safe, so secure, from all, all alarms!
I am leaning, yeah, leaning!
Leaning on the everlasting arms!

Repeat Chorus with stepouts
