Verse 1
‘Tis so sweet to walk with Jesus,
Step by step and day by day;
Stepping in His very footprints,
Walking with Him all the way.

Chorus
Step by step, step by step,
I would walk with Jesus,
All the day, all the way,
Keeping step with Jesus.

Verse 2
‘Tis so safe to walk with Jesus,
Leaning hard upon His arm,
Following closely where He leads us,
None can hurt and naught can harm.

Verse 3
Step by step I’ll walk with Jesus,
Just a moment at a time,
Heights I have not wings to soar to,
Step by step my feet can climb.

Verse 4
All the way I’ll walk with Jesus,
Through the sunshine, through the gloom,
Though His blood-marked steps may lead me
To the garden, to the tomb.

Verse 5
Here a while we walk with Jesus,
But the time will not be long
Till the night shall change to morning,
And the sorrow into song.

Verse 6
Then, with all who walked with Jesus,
We shall walk with Him in white,
While He turns our grief to gladness,
And our darkness into light.

Verse 7
Jesus, keep me closer – closer,
Step by step, and day by day;
Stepping in Thy very footprints,
Walking with Thee all the way.
