My feet have closely followed His steps; I have kept to His way without turning aside.
Job 23:11
Words: J. Wakefield MacGill (1829–1902).
Music: San Bernardino. Anonymous, chorus by M. S. Sloane (🔊 pdf nwc).
If you know when this song was written, the composers’ full names, or where to get good pictures of them (head & shoulders, at least 200×300 pixels),
Every step with Jesus
Thus we love to go,
Down life’s shady pathway
Into evening’s glow.
Refrain
Every power for Jesus,
Brain and heart and will,
Used at highest pressure
Till the pulse be still;
Crown of glory waiting,
On the further shore,
Sing with glad rejoicing,
Praises evermore.
Every step with Jesus,
When the mornings break,
Whispering life’s secrets
E’er the road we take.
Refrain
Every nerve for Jesus,
Strained in mighty toil,
Just to bring the Master
Heaps of golden spoil.
Refrain
Every man for Jesus,
What a mighty throng,
Then would swell the chorus
Of the victor’s song!
