[Verse 1]
A                  D
What a fellowship, what a joy divine
A                           E
Leaning on the ever lasting arms;
A                   D
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms
 
 
[Chorus]
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                        E
Safe and secure from all alarms
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms
 
 
[Verse 2]
A                   D
O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way
A                          E
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
A                     D
O how bright the path grows from day to day
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms
 
 
[Chorus]
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                        E
Safe and secure from all alarms
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms
 
 
[Verse 3]
A                     D
What have I to dread, what have I to fear
A                          E
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
A                    D
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
 
 
[Chorus]
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                        E
Safe and secure from all alarms
A                 D
Leaning on Jesus, leaning on Jesus
A                  E       A
Leaning on the everlasting arms
