1 Since I found Him at the cross,
I am walking with Jesus;
Ev’ry day thro’ gain or loss,
I am walking with Jesus.
Refrain:
I am walking with Jesus,
Yes, I’m walking with Jesus,
Step by step along life’s road,
I am walking with Jesus.
2 What tho’ shadows round me spread?
I am walking with Jesus;
Always there’s a light ahead,
While I’m walking with Jesus. [Refrain]
3 Friends may come or friends may go,
I am walking with Jesus;
‘Tis enough for me to know
I am walking with Jesus. [Refrain]
4 What tho’ grief should start my tears?
I am walking with Jesus;
Still my soul will have no fears,
I am walking with Jesus. [Refrain]
5 Tho’ I walk up Calvary’s hill,
I am walking with Jesus;
Or Gethsemane so still,
I am walking with Jesus. [Refrain]
6 Soon His face I will behold,
I am walking with Jesus;
Soon upon the streets of gold,
I am walking with Jesus. [Refrain]

Johnson Oatman, Jr., son of Johnson and Rachel Ann Oatman, was born near Medford, N. J., April 21, 1856. His father was an excellent singer, and it always delighted the son to sit by his side and hear him sing the songs of the church.
Outside of the usual time spent in the public schools, Mr. Oatman received his education at Herbert's Academy, Princetown, N. J., and the New Jersey Collegiate Institute, Bordentown, N. J. At the age of nineteen he joined the M.E. Church, and a few years later he was granted a license to preach the Gospel, and still later he was regularly ordained by Bishop Merrill. However, Mr. Oatman only serves as a local preacher.
For many years he was engaged with his father in the mercantile business at Lumberton… Go to person page >
