Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: LV1898 #4 (1898) First Line: Once I heard my Saviour speak Lyrics: 1 Once I hear my Saviour speak,
"Come, my child, and walk with me;
I am strong, but thou art weak,
Walk, my child, with me.
I will be thy faithful friend;
I will thee from harm defend;
I will guide thee to the end;
Walk, my child, with me.
Chorus:
"Walk, my child, with me,
All the way with me;
I will safely lead the home,
Walk, my child, with me"
2 "Through this land of toil and tears,
Come, my child, and walk with me;
I will drive away thy fears,
Walk, my child with me.
Pilgrim to an unknown strand,
Would'st thou reach the better land?
Let me lead thee by the hand;
Walk, my child, with me." [Chorus]
3 "Through the darkness and the night,
Come, my child, and walk with me;
I will make thy pathway bright,
Walk, my child, with me.
When life's clouds have passed away,
Thou wilt shine in endless day;
Come, I am the Life, the Way,
Walk, my child, with me." [Chorus] Topics: Benevolence; Devotional; Praise; Revival Languages: English Tune Title: [Once I heard my Saviour speak]
