Let me walk in the path
which my Savior hath trod,
Let me follow so close by his side.
For by trusting in him I am happy and free,
In the fold lf his love let me hide.
Let my heart e’er be
fixed on my treasure above,
Let the pleasures of earth fade away.
For there’s nothing so lovely as Jesus to me,
Let me ne’er from his love go astray.
Do you ask why I love
him the dearest of all?
Why so freely I yield unto him?
‘Tis because he has loved me and died on the cross,
My poor soul lost in sin to redeem.
It is blessed to serve
him and do his good will,
For so precious to me is his love.
Let my talents and time all be given to him,
Till he calls me to meet him above.
In his love let me hide
(in the fold of his love let me hide),
In his love let me hide (in the fold of his love let me hide);
For by trusting in him I am happy and free,
In the fold of his love let me hide (let me hide).
