We Walk by Faith (Crosby)

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1885
Composer: William Kirkpatrick

We walk by faith

and oh

how sweet

The flow’rs that grow be­neath our feet

And frag­rance breathe along the way

That leads the soul to end­less day.

We walk by faith

but not alone

Our shep­herd’s ten­der voice we hear

And feel His hand with­in our own

And know that He is al­ways near.

We walk by faith; He wills it so

And marks the path that we should go.

And when

at times

our sky is dim

He gent­ly draws us close to Him.

We walk by faith di­vine­ly blest

On Him we lean in Him we rest.

The more we trust our shep­herd’s care

The more His love ’tis ours to share.

And thus by faith till life shall end

We’ll walk with Him

our dear­est friend

Till safe we tread the fields of light

Where faith is lost in per­fect sight.
