10214. Happy Are They

1 Happy are they who trust and obey,
And walk in the King’s highway,
Doing the will of Jesus their Lord,
Assured of a blessèd reward.

Refrain:
Happy are they who walk in this way,
And toil for the Master each day;
He is their priest, their prophet and king,
And gladly His praises they sing.

2 Happy are they who walk in the light,
That shineth so wondrously bright,
Striving each day more useful to grow,
And more of Christ’s spirit to show. [Refrain]

3 Happy are they who live for their Lord,
Who treasure His holy Word,
Power divine shall keep them from harm,
Upheld by the Savior’s strong arm. [Refrain]
