As I walk this weary way

Through my saviour shall I be

Given peace eternally

Upon my soul
Chorus 1:
F
Upon my soul
C
Upon my free and joyous soul
C G
Given peace eternally
C
Upon my soul
Jesus shine your light on me
Shine with love and charity
That I might help brothers see
Upon my soul
For temptation let me ply
Be my wings, Lord, be my eyes
Guard me when old Satan's nigh
Upon my soul
Chorus 2:
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
