540. Walk in the Light

1 Walk in the light the Lord has given
To guide thy steps aright;
His Holy Spirit, sent from heav'n,
Can cheer the darkest night.

Chorus:
Walk in the light,
Walk in the light
Walk in the light,
Walk in the light, the light of God.

2 Walk in the light of gospel truth
That shines from God's own Word,
A light to guide in early youth
The faithful of the Lord. [Chorus]

3 Walk in the light; tho' shadows dark
Should fall across thy way,
Darkness will flee before the light
Of God's eternal day. [Chorus]

4 Walk in the light, and thou shall know
The love of God to thee;
The fellowship, so sweet below,
In heav'n will sweeter be. [Chorus]
