WALKING IN THE LIGHT

WALKING IN THE LIGHT 

1.

 I am walking in the light,
And my path is shining bright,
Where there is no more dark night
I now dwell.
This vain world I bid adieu,
And its’ pleasures fade from view,
All things now to me are new,
All is well.

Refrain:
Jesus saves day by day,
Sweetly keeps all the way,
All my burdens He bears,
Ev’ry care;
Soon I’ll lay my armor down,
And at Jesus feet sit down,
And receive a starry crown
Over there.







2.

 I have glory for a prize
And a crown beyond the skies
When from earth I shall arise,
Pure and white.
I shall then with Jesus reign,
And eternal honor gain,
And be pure from ev’ry stain
In His sight. 

Refrain:
Jesus saves day by day,
Sweetly keeps all the way,
All my burdens He bears,
Ev’ry care;
Soon I’ll lay my armor down,
And at Jesus feet sit down,
And receive a starry crown
Over there.

3.

 I have angel food to eat,
And no honey is so sweet,
It is most delicious meat
To the soul.
On His promise I abide,
And my soul is satisfied,
For I feel the crimson tide
O’er me roll. 

Refrain:
Jesus saves day by day,
Sweetly keeps all the way,
All my burdens He bears,
Ev’ry care;
Soon I’ll lay my armor down,
And at Jesus feet sit down,
And receive a starry crown
Over there.

4.

 I have garments wro’t with gold,
And their value is untold,
They have neither moth nor mould,
Bless the Lord.
I have jewels rich and rare,
And a mansion bright and fair,
For His will is written there,
In His word. 

Refrain:
Jesus saves day by day,
Sweetly keeps all the way,
All my burdens He bears,
Ev’ry care;
Soon I’ll lay my armor down,
And at Jesus feet sit down,
And receive a starry crown
Over there.
