701. Walk Beside Me

Verse 1 Walk beside me, O my Savior, While life's morning sky is bright; Grant me now Thy loving favor, Flood my path with heav'nly light; Whether good or ill betide me, Whether skies be dark or clear, Ever stay so close beside me, I may know and feel Thee near. Verse 2 When the noontide's glowing splendor Brings its weight of toil and care, May Thy love, so pure and tender, All my heavy burdens bear; In a weary land, provide me Shelt'ring rock and cooling spring; When the tempest rages, hide me Underneath Thy folded wing. Verse 3 When the twilight shades descending, Warn my soul that night is near, With the hues of sunset blending, Let the light of heav'n appear; Thru the valley, Savior take me, Close my eyes when night shall come; Then bid angel voices wake me, Sweetly singing, "Welcome home." Coda Blessed Savior, walk with me; Take away all anxious fear; Ever stay so close beside me, I may know and feel Thee near.

Verse 4 Thank you, Lord, for little children, how they fill our hearts with love! Humble, innocent, and trusting, like Your children up above.  In our hands, as clay they're molded, ever lea...
