Walking in the King’s Highway

Author: Mrs. Grace Weiser Davis Hymnal: Crowning Day No. 2 #245 (1896) First Line: I am happy ev'ry day Refrain First Line: Walking in the King's highway! Lyrics: 1 I am happy ev’ry day, I am happy all the way, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway; Things may seem all right or wrong, Trusting still, I march along, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway. Refrain: Walking in the King’s highway! I am walking in the King’s highway! I am happy in the Lord, I am trusting in His word, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway. 2 Lions oft seem in the way— Straight ahead, I keep and pray, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway; Then a victory is gained, For I find the lions chained, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway. [Refrain] 3 I rejoice e’en when I’m sad, For His promise makes me glad, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway; For each wound I have a balm, In the fight I wear a palm, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway. [Refrain] 4 Such baptisms of His love! Such anointings from above, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway; Jesus comes and walks with me, More in Him each day I see, Since I’m walking in the King’s highway. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I am happy every day]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[I am happy every day]" in Crowning Day No. 2 Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
