What Would Jesus Do? (Ogdon)

Oft we lose the nar­row path­way

As we seek the land of day;

Yet the Mas­ter goes be­fore us:

In His steps we find the way.

What would Je­sus do?

Make His way the way for you.

In a world of sin and sor­row

He was tried and prov­en true

So we al­ways know what He would do.

Do not wea­ry of well do­ing

From the mock­ery of men

Jesus

too

was scorned

re­ject­ed

Yet re­viled them not again.

Though our hu­man cour­age fal­ters

At the world’s ap­pal­ling sin

It is Je­sus we are trust­ing

Love di­vine shall sure­ly win.

What to us is fame or trea­sure

Though of all we gain con­trol;

This alone shall tru­ly pro­fit:

A re­deemed

im­mor­tal soul.
