48. Walking in the Light

1 Walking in the light of God,
As it shines throughout his word,
There’s a bright and shining path the way along;
And a path that would be drear,
Shines with glory, O so clear!
That the heart rejoices in a song.

Refrain:
We are walking in the light,
We are walking in the light;
Walking in the narrow way,
To the realms of endless day,
We are walking in the light of God.

2 Often weary, often sad,
Yet the soul is ever glad,
For the light of God the cheerfulness supplies;
So we walk where’er he leads,
Thro’ the vale or mountain meads,
Where new glories greet our wearies eyes. [Refrain]

3 Till we reach the summit high,
And behold the glorious sky,
With its radiant light that comes from heaven’s dome;
We shall trust in God our King,
And press onward, while we sing
Of the glories of our heav’nly home. [Refrain]
