1 Are you walking with the Savior,
In the true and living way?
Is the meek and lowly Jesus
Your companion ev’ry day?
Is your life that consecration
To the cause of Him you love,
Which would give you consolation,
Looking at it from above?

Refrain:
Are you walking with the Savior,
In the true and living way?
Is the meek and lowly Jesus
Your companion ev’ry day?

2 Are you walking with the Savior,
Are you daily doing good?
Is your light around you burning
Just as brightly as it should?
Are the poor in cottage lowly,
And the stranger by the way,
Ever blest with words of kindness
Which in love they’ve heard you say? [Refrain]

3 Are you walking with the Savior,
Does your heart within you burn,
While the sweetness of compassion
From His loving lips you learn?
Do you wish that at the ev’ning,
When the twilight shadows fall,
That the Savior would be with you,
And obedient to your call? [Refrain]
