1 Jesus our loving Redeemer,
Watch o’er our footsteps we pray,
Lest in the hour of temptation,
From Thy safe keeping we stray.
Refrain:
Watch o’er our footsteps,
Watch o’er our footsteps, we pray;
Lest in the hour of temptation,
From Thy safe keeping we stray.
2 Dangers around us are thronging,
Countless the voices that call;
But Thy dear voice, O, our shepherd,
May we hear loud over all. [Refrain]
3 Thou who hast ransomed and saved us,
Knowest the way we must take;
Help us to faithfully follow,
Bearing the cross for Thy sake. [Refrain]
4 Watch o’er us, guard us, and keep us,
Till in Thy presence above,
Safely at last we are gathered,
Telling Thy wonderful love. [Refrain]
