133. Christian, Walk Carefully

1 Christian, walk carefully; danger is near!
On in thy journey with trembling fear;
Shares from without, and temptations within,
Seek to entice thee once more into sin.
Christian, walk carefully,
Christian, walk carefully,
Christian, walk carefully,
danger is near!

2 Christian, walk cheerfully through the fierce storm,
Dark though the sky with it’s threats of alarm;
Soon will the clouds and the tempest be o’er,
Then with thy Saviour thou’lt rest evermore. [Refrain]
Christian, walk cheerfully
Christian, walk cheerfully
Christian, walk cheerfully
through the fierce storm.

3 Christian, walk prayerfully; Oft wilt thou fall,
If thou forget on thy Saviour to call;
Safe thou shall walk through each trial and care,
If thou art clad in the armour of prayer. [Refrain]
Christian, walk pray’rfully
Christian, walk pray’rfully
Christian, walk pray’rfully
fear lest thou fall.

4 Christian, walk hopefully; sorrow and pain
Cease when the haven for rest thou shalt gain;
Then from the lips of the Judge, thy reward:
“Enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” [Refrain]
Christian, walk hopefully
Christian, walk hopefully
Christian, walk hopefully
rest thou shalt gain.
