Hymn 349

Walk With God

I love the quietness of the morning,
The peaceful beauty of the day;
I love to go there to my bower,
And humbly bow my head and pray.

Oh, what a joy and peace it gives me
To talk to Jesus in a prayer;
It gives me hope and consolation,
It lifts me from my ev'ry care.

Things seem brighter in the morning,
As God so boldly shows His face;
It makes me want to shout His praises,
And thank Him for amazing grace.

Oh, that His grace and mercy guide me,
That when it's finished I can say,
When the evening sun is setting,
I have walked with God today.

First Line
I love the quietness of the morning
Chorus First Line
Oh, that His grace and mercy guide me
