Only stanza 1 is printed, interlinear: in system 1 two lines in braces with «1.» before them — «Je - sus, my all, to heaven is gone; Je - sus says he will be with us to the end;» (first time) and «He whom I fix my hopes up - on; Je - sus says he will be with us to the end.» (second time, after the repeat sign) — and in system 2 one line, the refrain «For he has been with us, and he still is with us, And he's promised to be with us to the end.». The stanza below is laid out in the order sung, one line per phrase, the syllables joined into words.
