217. Only a Step

1 Why should I worry about the way,
Tho’ only one step I see?
Jesus is with me by night and day,
His light is enough for me.

Refrain:
Only one step; only one step;
That is enough to see;
When He is near there is nothing to fear,
For Jesus is guiding me.

2 Why should I tremble tho’ storms betide,
And cause all my song to flee;
Jesus, my Saviour, is at my side,
My song will return to me. [Refrain]

3 Why should I sigh thro’ the valley drear,
When shadows of evening fall;
Christ, my Redeemer, will still be near
And he is my All in all. [Refrain]
