Author: Clara M. Brooks Hymnal: Timeless Truths #662 Meter: 9.9.9.6 with refrain First Line: Following Jesus from day to day Refrain First Line: Walking with Jesus I’m in the light Lyrics: 1 Following Jesus from day to day, Gently He leads me along the way; E’er will I trust Him all foes despite, By faith and not by sight. Refrain: Walking with Jesus I’m in the light, Walking with Jesus in robes of white; Walking with Jesus my way is bright, By faith and not by sight. 2 Jesus has purchased me for His own, Sweetly He reigns in my heart, His throne, Pardon He granted, and washed me white, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 3 Seeking to enter the holiest place, Boldly I came to the throne of grace; Sanctified wholly, He’s my delight, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 4 When I was held in affliction’s chain, Suffering much from disease and pain; Jesus then touched me and healed me quite, By faith and not by sight. [Refrain] 5 Walking with Jesus till we shall meet, When in His likeness I stand complete, Where with the ransomed in heaven’s light, My faith is lost in sight. [Refrain] Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:7 Tune Title: [Following Jesus from day to day]

Clara McAlister Brooks

1882 - 1980 Person Name: Clara M. Brooks Author of "By Faith and Not by Sight" in Hymnal of the Church of God Birth: Oct. 9, 1882, Parke County, Indiana, USA Death: Mar. 20, 1980, Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida, USA Clara McAlister Brooks was one of our early songwriters and four of her pieces are in the current hymnal. From the earliest days of the movement we have had women prominent in all forms of our ministry—missionaries, evangelists, teachers, pastors, and God has honored their sacrificial labors. For that reason we can stand in amazement when here, in the 1970s, such old-line denominations as the Episcopal church are being racked with controversy over whether the ordination of women is permissible. But before we gather Pharisaic robes about ourselves, perhaps we need to look candidly at the way in which we, too, succumbed to some of the cultural and prejudicial patterns of later decades! --www.whwomenclergy.org/articles/
