Representative Text

1. We walk by faith and O how sweet,
the flowers that grow beneath our feet,
and fragrance breathe along the way
that leads the soul to endless day.

Refrain:
We walk by faith but not alone,
      our Shepherd's tender voice we hear,
his tender hand within our own,
      knowing that he is always near.

2. We walk by faith Christ wills it so,
and marks the path that we should go;
and when at times our sky is dim,
Christ gently draws us close to him.
Refrain:

3. We walk by faith, divinely blessed,
on Christ we lean, in him we rest;
the more we trust our Shepherd's care,
the more his love is ours to share.
Refrain:

4. And thus by faith, till life shall end,
we'll walk with Christ our dearest Friend,
till safe we tread the fields of light,
where faith is lost in perfect sight.
Refrain:
