136. Following His Steps

1 Let us march along in the narrow way,
Where the faithful few have trod,
Follow in His footsteps the live-long day,
Leaving all results with God.

Refrain:
Following His steps thro’ the long, long, way,
Leaning on the arm of His wondrous grace;
In the land above we shall dwell for aye,
And shall look on His blessed face.

2 There are foes to fight, there are souls to win,
So we dare not idle stand;
Strong in faith, we’ll conquer the pow’rs of sin,
Going forth at God’s command. [Refrain]

3 We will seek no laurels or worldly fame,
Knowing our reward will be,
If we fully trust in His blessed name,
Shining crowns of victory. [Refrain]
