Lyrics

Walking with Jesus, from morning till night,
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, in garments made white,
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, with hand clasped in hand,
Walking with Jesus in Canaan’s bright land,

Refrain

Walking with Jesus, O blest be His name!
Walking with Jesus my Lord.
Walking with Jesus, walking with Jesus,
Walking with Jesus, O blest be His name!
Walking with Jesus my Lord.

Walking with Jesus when danger is nigh,
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, when billows run high;
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus in poverty’s vale,
Walking with Jesus whose love will ne’er fail,

Refrain

Walking with Jesus, when friends prove untrue
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, whatever they do;
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, in step by His side,
Walking with Jesus whatever betide,

Refrain

Walking with Jesus, by faith and not sight,
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, with songs of delight;
Walking with Jesus my Lord;
Walking with Jesus, my staff and my stay,
Walking with Jesus, the truth and the way,

Refrain
