Light in the Valley ‎#53

53. Learning Every Day

1 Learning ev'ry day, words of truth and grace,
At the feet of Christ, what a blessed place;
List'ning to his voice, looking in his face,
Sitting at the feet of Jesus.

Chorus:
Learning ev'ry day, all about the way,
Learning how to watch, learning how to pray;
Learning how to live, learning how to die,
Sitting at the feet of Jesus.

2 Learning ev'ry day of the will of God,
Learning how to pass 'neath the chast'ning rod;
Learning how to tread where the saints have trod,
Sitting at the feet of Jesus. [Chorus]

3 Learning ev'ry day as a little child,
Learning how to live patient, kind and mild;
Learning how to live pure and undefiled,
Sitting at the feet of Jesus. [Chorus]

4 Learning how to live in a world of sin,
Learning how to have joy and peace within;
Learning how to have heaven here begun,
Sitting at the feet of Jesus. [Chorus]
