Representative Text

1 We shall travel with the King upon a royal road,
If we walk with Him,
Reign with Christ upon His throne in yonder blest abode,
If we walk with Him.

Refrain:
If we walk with Him,
If we walk along the way with Him,
There is healing for our sadness,
There is peace and joy and gladness
If we walk with Him.

2 We shall never know the poverty of friendless joy,
If we walk with Him,
For His grace is all-sufficient when the doubts annoy,
If we walk with Him. [Refrain]

3 We shall know the blessed secret of prevailing pray’r,
If we walk with Him,
And the glory of the Inner Circle we shall share,
If we walk with Him. [Refrain]

4 We shall sing the song of triumph all along life’s way,
If we walk with Him,
And go sweeping thro’ the gate that leads to endless day,
If we walk with Him. [Refrain]
