83. He Walks With Me

1 Rise up, my soul, to greet the morn,
For night is past—the shadows flee—
And now, no more I weep, forlorn,
Since my dear Saviour walks with me!

Refrain:
He walks with me, He walks with me,
O’er thorny ways He walks with me!
Whate’er betide—my Hope! my Guide!—
He walks with me! He walks with me!

2 Behold! with anguish deep opprest,
He, naked, hangs upon the tree;
And yet, in robes of glory drest,
My blessed Saviour walks with me! [Refrain]

3 When this vain dream of life is o’er,
And upward mounts my spirit free—
Forever, on that heav’nly shore,
Will my Redeemer walk with me! [Refrain]

4 He’ll walk with me! He’ll walk with me!
By healing stream of Calvary;
There by my side—dear Friend and Guide—
He’ll walk with me! He’ll walk with me! [Refrain]
