Walking and Talking with Jesus

lyricist: William Appell, 1894
Composer: Charles Gabriel

When the low­ly Je­sus trod

The paths of men be­low

He be­held their bit­ter sor­row

And their crush­ing woe;

He re­ceived them kind­ly

when

They joined Him on the way

Graciously He walked and talked

With them from day to day.

Walking and talk­ing with Je­sus

Smoothes the rug­ged way

Walking and talk­ing with Je­sus

Brings the light of day;

Walking and talk­ing with Je­sus

Fills the heart with love;

Walking and talk­ing with Je­sus

Is like Heav’n above.

You may walk with Him to­day!

Believe it

wea­ry soul;

He will cause your heart to burn;

His words will make you whole;

With the smile of His dear face

He’ll cheer you on the way;

Safely He will guide and lead you

On from day to day.

Oh

the joy to walk with Je­sus

To our home above

Basking in the sun­shine of

His ev­er­last­ing love;

Oh

the joy to talk with Je­sus

In the sha­dow-land

And to feel at ev­ery turn

The touch of His dear hand.
