Jesus help through each day

As I walk this weary way 
        G 
Upon my soul

And when judgement falls to me 
           F               C 
Through my saviour shall I be 
      C            G  
Given peace eternally

Jesus shine your light on me 
Shine with love and charity

For temptation let me ply 
Be my wings, Lord, be my eyes 
Guard me when old Satan's nigh  
Upon my soul

Upon my soul 
Upon my free and joyous soul 
Guard me when old Satan's nigh  
Upon my soul 
 
 
I shall fill each earhly day 
With the singing of his praise  
Follow in his holy ways 
Upon my soul 
And when I lay my troubles down 
On my brow he'll place a crown 
And the trumpets all shall sound 
Upon my soul 
 
Chorus 3: 
Upon my soul 
Upon my free and joyous soul 
And the trumpets all shall sound 
Upon my soul
