1. When I am tempted evil to do, Jesus is near my strength to renew;
Just What I Need He Gives
When I am tempted evil to do,
Jesus is near my strength to renew;
Keeping me spotless, keeping me true,
Just what I need He gives.
Just what I need He gives, (my Savior gives,)
Close to my side He lives; (my Savior lives;)
Honor and glory be to His name,
1-4
Words and Music by A. J. Showalter

2. Whether the path is dreary or bright,
Just What I Need He Gives
Whether the path is dreary or bright,
Whether my care is heavy or light,
Holding my hand by day and by night,
Just what I need He gives.
Just what I need He gives, (my Savior gives,)
Close to my side He lives; (my Savior lives;)
Honor and glory be to His name,
2-4

3. He is indeed a marvelous Friend, Step after step with Him I ascend,
Just What I Need He Gives
He is indeed a marvelous Friend,
Step after step with Him I ascend,
Keeping me faithful unto the end,
Just what I need He gives.
Just what I need He gives, (my Savior gives,)
Close to my side He lives; (my Savior lives;)
Honor and glory be to His name,
3-4

4. I shall behold Him, after awhile,
Just What I Need He Gives
I shall behold Him, after awhile,
Hear His glad welcome, see His dear smile;
That we may meet on yonder fair isle,
Just what I need He gives.
Just what I need He gives, (my Savior gives,)
Close to my side He lives; (my Savior lives;)
Honor and glory be to His name,
4-4
