1 He walks with God who speaks to God in prayer,
And daily brings to him his daily care;
Possessing inward peace, he truly knows
A heart’s refreshment and a soul’s repose.
2 He walks with God who, as he onward moves,
Follows the footsteps of the Lord he loves,
And keeping him for ever in his view,
His Saviour sees and his example too.
3 He walks with God who turns his face to Heaven,
And keeps the blest commands by Jesus given;
His life upright, his end untroubled peace,
Whom God will crown when all his labours cease.
