1 Jesus is calling the children,
Calling, yes, calling today;
Oh, will you walk in His footsteps—
Walk in the beautiful way?

Beautiful way, beautiful way,
Walk in the beautiful way.

2 Jesus is calling the children,
Those who are going astray;
He wants to lead you to heaven,
Along the beautiful way. [Refrain]

3 Jesus is calling the children,
Come to Him now while you may;
He’ll fill your heart with His gladness,
Walk in the beautiful way. [Refrain]

4 Jesus is calling the children,
Will you His sweet voice obey?
Come, let Him lead you to heaven,
Along the beautiful way. [Refrain]
