1 Trustingly, trustingly,
Jesus, to thee
Come I; Lord, lovingly,
Come thou to me!
Then shall I lovingly,
Then shall I joyfully
Walk here with thee,
Walk here with thee.

2 Peacefully, peacefully
Walk I with thee;
Jesus, my Lord, thou art
All, all to me;
Peace thou hast left to us,
Thy peace hast given us;
So let it be,
So let it be.

3 Happily, happily
Pass I along,
Eager to work for thee,
Earnest and strong;
Life is for service true,
Life is for battle, too,
Life is for song,
Life is for song.
