117. I’m Happy on the Way

1 Jesus, my all, to heav’n is gone,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way;
He whom I fix my hopes upon,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way.

Refrain:
Happy on the way, happy on the way,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way,
Happy on the way, happy on the way,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way.

2 His track I see, and I’ll pursue,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way;
The narrow way, till Him I view,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way. [Refrain]

3 The way the holy prophets went,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way;
The road that leads from banishment,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way. [Refrain]

4 The King’s highway of holiness,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way;
I’ll go, for all His paths are peace,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way. [Refrain]

5 This is the way I long have sought,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way;
And mourn’d because I found it not,
Bless the Lord, I’m happy on the way. [Refrain]
