312. Keep Step With Jesus

1 Keep step with Jesus: He Who leads
Should surely set the peace,
Keep step with Jesus, would’st thou be
A victor in the race.

2 Not over-running His sweet will,
Nor lagging far behind;
Who walk with Jesus, only these
The road to blessing find.

3 O happy they who fear to take
One single step alone;
But, led by Him, will dare to tread
The pathless depths unknown.

4 This sacred path man koweth not,
Save only such as bow
To take His yoke, and breathe to Him—
“Thou art my portion now.”

5 They tread it, and with quiet heart
Have learnt—are learning still,
That not a single good outlies
The circle of His will.
