539. I want Jesus to walk with me

1 I want Jesus to walk with me;
I want Jesus to walk with me;
all along my pilgrim journey,
oh, I want Jesus to walk with me.

2 In my trials, Lord, walk with me;
in my trials, Lord, walk with me;
when my heart is almost breaking,
oh, I want Jesus to walk with me.

3 When I’m troubled, Lord, walk with me;
when I’m troubled, Lord, walk with me;
when my head is bowed in sorrow,
oh, I want Jesus to walk with me.
