[Isa 35:8] I Walk The King’s Highway
I know not where the road will lead
I follow day by day,
Or where it ends: I only know
I walk the King’s highway.I know not if the way is long,
And no one else can say;
But rough or smooth, up hill or down,
I walk the King’s highway.And some I love have reached the end,
But some with me may stay,
Their faith and hope still guiding me:
I walk the King’s highway.The way is truth, the way is love,
For light and strength I pray,
And through the years of life, to God,
I walk the King’s highway.The countless hosts lead on before,
I must not fear nor stray;
With them, the pilgrims of the faith,
I walk the King’s highway.Through light and dark the road leads on
Till dawns the endless day,
When I shall know why in this life
I walk the King’s highway.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

That would lead you into evil, say you nay,

I’ll keep along the middle of the King’s highway;

Turn aside, the little flowers seem to say;
Be sure you take no heed—they’re trying to mislead—
Just keep along the middle of the King’s highway.Refrain
For on enchanted ground, there’s danger all around,
And a thousand pleasant voices bid you stay,
With fingers stop your ears, and never mind the jeers,
Just keep along the middle of the King’s highway.Refrain

Go bury thy sorrow, the world hath its share;
Go bury it deeply, go hide it with care.
Go think of it calmly, when curtained by night;
Go tell it to Jesus, and all will be right.Go tell it to Jesus, He knoweth thy grief;
Go tell it to Jesus, He’ll send thee relief;
Go gather the sunshine He sheds on the way:
He’ll lighten thy burden—Go, weary one, pray.Hearts growing aweary with heavier woe
Now droop ’mid the darkness—Go, comfort them, go!

Joy and triumph everlasting
Hath the heav’nly Church on high;
For that pure immortal gladness
All our feast days mourn and sigh:
Yet in death’s dark desert wild
Doth the mother aid her child;
Guards celestial thence attend us,
Stand in combat to defend us.Here the world’s perpetual warfare
Holds from Heav’n the soul apart;
Legioned foes in shadowy terror
Vex the Sabbath of the heart.
O how happy that estate
Where delight doth not abate!
For that home the spirit yearneth,
Where none languisheth nor mourneth.There the body hath no torment,
There the mind is free from care,
There is every voice rejoicing,
Every heart is loving there.
Angels in that city dwell;
Them their King delighteth well:
Still they joy and weary never,
More and more desiring ever.There the seers and fathers holy,
There the prophets glorified,
All their doubts and darkness ended,
In the Light of Light abide.
There the saints, whose memories old
We in faithful hymns uphold,
Have forgot their bitter story
In the joy of Jesus’ glory.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
