Walk¤ing in the Spir¤it
With my Sav¤iour and my King,
Noth¤ing to con¤demn me,
I will jour¤ney on and sing
Un¤to Him who loved me
And re¤deemed my soul from sin,
Heaven to me is o¤pened,
By His blood I en¤ter in.

Now made nigh by Je¤sus
In the new and liv¤ing way,
Hum¤bly at the Throne of grace
I dai¤ly wait and pray,
All my heart’s deep long¤ings,
He doth ful¤ly sat¤is¤fy,
This my soul’s deep com¤fort
That my Lord is ev¤er nigh.

Some¤times clouds and dark¤ness
Hide the shin¤ing of His face.
Noth¤ing can a¤larm me,
For I trust those words of grace,
“I will nev¤er leave thee,”
Pre¤cious words of truth di¤vine,
“Nev¤er will for¤sake thee,
I’ve re¤deemed thee, thou art mine.”

Self would of¤ten hin¤der,
But I flee from self to Him.
Je¤sus is my light and life,
No power this truth can dim,
He is my hope and ref¤uge,
The an¤chor of my soul,
Cer¤tain, sure for¤ev¤er,
While the count¤less a¤ges roll.

In¤ward trib¤u¤la¤tion,
Care and toil and out¤ward strife
Are the things per¤tain¤ing
To this hum¤ble pil¤grim life.
Those man¤i¤fold temp¤ta¤tions
Our faith and love will try,
The fur¤nace of af¤flic¤tion
Our gold will pur¤i¤fy.

Touched with my in¤firm¤i¤ties,
He ev¤er lives to plead,
Sav¤ing to the ut¤ter¤most,
Sup¤ply¤ing all my need,
Liv¤ing for the King¤dom
Which no power can o¤ver¤throw,
I’ll prove Him all suf¤fi¤cient,
The jour¤ney here be¤low.

When this life is o¤ver
I shall see Him face to face,
I will bear His im¤age
When I reach that Ho¤ly place,
God’s e¤ter¤nal pur¤pose
Is to make me like His Son,
Fin¤ish and com¤plete in me
The work He has be¤gun.
