Scripture
Psalm 23:4
Verse 1
I want Jesus to walk with me.
I want Jesus to walk with me.
All along my pilgrim journey,
I want Jesus to walk with me.
Verse 2
In my trials Lord, walk with me.
In my trials Lord, walk with me.
When the shades of life are falling,
I want Jesus to walk with me.
Verse 3
In my sorrows, Lord, walk with me.
In my sorrows, Lord, walk with me.
When my heart within is aching,
I want Jesus to walk with me.
