With the Savior as my guide;
O, ‘tis sweet to feel His presence,
For He’s walking by my side.
Refrain:
On the homeward way with the King,
On the homeward way;
How my heart with joy is singing
On the homeward way.
2 When He speaks temptations leave me,
At His word my sorrows cease;
From the woes of life that grieve me
Jesus gives me sweet release. [Refrain]
3 Hour by hour I know Him near me,
And His praise I gladly sing;
Heav’nly grace and mercy cheer me
On the highway of my King. [Refrain]
4 There is blessing for the journey,
There is grace for ev’ry day;
Turning from all sin and folly
Seek the blessed homeward way! [Refrain] Tune Title: [I am on the heavenly highway]
On the Homeward Way
