1 Sing as you journey, gladden the way,
Chase all the shadows, brighten each day;
Sing of each blessing sent from above,
Gifts from the Father, tokens of love.

Chorus:
Sing as you journey,
Sing on your way;
God will be with you,
Bless you each day;
Sing and be thankful,
Ever rejoice,
Praising His goodness,
O lift the heart and voice.

2 Sing as you journey, many are near,
Longing for kindness, comfort and cheer;
Tender the message, sweet the refrain,
Others with gladness list to the strain. [Chorus]

3 Sing as you journey, skies will be bright,
Burdens seem lighter, shadows take flight;
Joys will be sweeter, courage grow strong,
All of the pathway blest by your song. [Chorus]
