Dear Jesus

It's so nice to have you near
When I am all alone
You are a welcome visitor
In my happy home

Each day that passes by
I feel your Spirit near
I live in joy and contentment
Without a thought of fear

I read the Bible every day
I know your promises are real 
When I send my prayers to you
It's your presence that I feel

As your love surrounds me
I feel the joy within
The presence of my Savior
Who saved me from my sin
