1 O what happiness,
O what peace I know,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side,
In His love divine,
In His grace I grow,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side.

Refrain:
Walking, I’m walking, by my Saviour’s side,
Walking, I’m walking,
Walking where no harm can e’er betide.

2 At the break of day,
Or at noontime clear,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side,
I find happiness,
With my Lord so near,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side. [Refrain]

3 At the eventide,
Or in darkest night,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side,
I have perfect peace,
He’s my life and light,
Sweetly walking by my Saviour’s side. [Refrain]
