Wherever you may be,
Whatever you may see,
That would lead you in­to ev­il, say you nay,
I will not turn aside;
Whatever may be­tide,
I’ll keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s high­way.

Refrain

The King’s high­way, the King’s high­way,
I’ll keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s high­way;
I will not turn aside;
Whatever may be­tide,
I’ll keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s highway.

The mea­dows may be green,
Where by­path stile is seen,
Turn aside, the lit­tle flowers seem to say;
Be sure you take no heed—
They’re try­ing to mis­lead—
Just keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s high­way.

Refrain

For on en­chant­ed ground,
There’s dan­ger all around,
And a thou­sand pleasant voic­es bid you stay,
With fin­gers stop your ears,
And ne­ver mind the jeers,
Just keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s high­way.

Refrain

Our God will guide us right,
And walk­ing in the light,
We shall win a crown of glo­ry in the day,
When Je­sus calls His own
Together round the throne,
Who keep along the mid­dle
Of the King’s high­way.

Refrain
