43. Happy Days

1 Only to follow, day by day,
Just as the Master leads the way,
Taking each step that leads above
In the bright sunshine of his love.

Chorus:
Happy days, yes, happy days;
Faithful in service, joyful with praise;
Happy days, yes, happy days,
Walking with Jesus in his ways.

2 Only his least command to heed,
Letting his fulness meet our need;
Loyal to him thro' good and ill,
Finding his grace sufficient still. [Chorus]

3 Only to trust him all the while,
Trusting, while days of pleasure smile,
Trusting, when tears of sorrow fall,
Proving his presence, more than all. [Chorus]

4 Only in Jesus to abide,
Cleansing the soul in Calv'ry's tide,
Only to praise him more and more,
Till face to face, on Eden's shore. [Chorus]
