200. I Want Jesus to Walk with Me

1 I want Jesus to walk with me;
I want Jesus to walk with me;
All along my pilgrim journey,
Lord, I want Jesus to walk with me.

2 In my trials, Lord, walk with me;
In my trials, Lord, walk with me;
When my heart is almost breaking,
Lord, I want Jesus to walk with me.

3 When I’m troubled, Lord, walk with me;
When I’m troubled, Lord, walk with me;
When my head is bowed in sorrow,
Lord, I want Jesus to walk with me.
