He writes: “When I woke this morning, I considered how quickly the
world changes. People all over Michigan–all over the world–are finding
themselves confined to their homes. Maybe they’re dreading the silence. Maybe
they can’t imagine getting through a whole day with all their children at home.
Maybe they’ll lie awake at night worrying about their loved ones catching the
virus.
This simple song, dubbed “a hymn for sheltering in place” reminds
us that Jesus walks with us during these times.”
Greg is offering the lead sheet for free. There’s also a piano
accompaniment available for purchase.

On my longest day,
in my darkest night,
Jesus, please be near.
On my longest day,
in my darkest night,
Jesus, you are here.
You are with me,
you are with me
every hour of every day.
You are with me,
you are with me,
Jesus, you are here.
Jesus, you are here.
