New Songs of Pentecost No. 2 ‎#20

20. Walking and Talking With Jesus

1 Two pilgrims walked along a weary road,
With blighted hopes and bearing sorrow’s load;
Then did the Master unto them appear,
And strangely burned their hearts, His words to hear.

As they walk’d with Him by way,
As they talked with Him by the way;
O the load grew light,
And the pathway bright,
While walking and talking with Jesus.

2 And still unseen the blessed One is here,
And still to lonely hearts He draweth near;
And by His touch divine we bear our pain,
His words make hearts despairing glad again.

As they walk’d with Him by way,
As they talked with Him by the way;
O the load grew light,
And the pathway bright,
While walking and talking with Jesus.

3 If anyone is lonely on the way,
Come seek the Master’s company today;
For O with Him, tho’ rough the road and long
Joy’s flowers bloom and weeping turns to song.

As we walk’d with Him by the way,
As we talked with Him by the way;
O the load grew light,
And the pathway bright,
While walking and talking with Jesus.
