Representative Text

1 All the way I’ll walk with Jesus,
Tho’ his face I cannot see,
Just to know that he is near me,
This is joy enough for me.

Refrain:
Blessed Lord what joy to be
Walking all the way with thee,
Feeling the touch of that hand divine,
Knowing the Christ-love is ever mine;
Bright in the light of eternity,
Jesus my Saviour I’ll see, I’ll see.

2 He will tune my silent powers
To a melody divine;
Falling down in golden showers,
O’er my path his mercies shine. [Refrain]

3 All the way I’ll walk with Jesus,
Tho’ the billows round me roar;
Death is but the shining portal,
To the blissful glory shore. [Refrain]
