Timeless Truths ‎#1116

1116. Walking in the Light

1 “He that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness,
But shall have the light, the light of life”;
Walking in His footsteps, pure and spotless,
We are fully saved from sinful strife.

Refrain:
Walking in the light, walking in the light,
Walking in the light, the light of God;
Walking in the light, walking in the light,
Walking in the light, the precious light of God.

2 “He that followeth Me shall have full assurance
That his sins are pardoned, every one”;
He shall have the knowledge of acceptance
In the Father’s well-beloved Son. [Refrain]

3 “He that followeth Me shall conquer forever,
For I’ll interpose My grace and pow’r;
From My hand of strength there’s naught can sever,
If you will obey and trust each hour.” [Refrain]

4 “He that followeth Me shall have peace and pleasure,
He that will reject My word shall fall;
I will freely give My hidden treasure
Unto those who hear and heed My call.” [Refrain]

5 “He that followeth Me shall dwell safe in heaven,
And forever wear a starry crown;
But if you should die in sin’s dominion,
Awful fears of night will press you down.” [Refrain]
