INTRO
Come all you people around, listen what I have to say
I'll sing you a song about the heavenly throng, thank God, I'm on my way
I've travelled the paths of sin, and many a crime I've done
But I trust in God and through Christ's blood, thank God, the victory's won
REFRAIN: Walking in the way with Jesus, feeling mighty happy now
When I'm tempted to do wrong, before the Lord I bow
I ask him for protection, as we begin to fight
And it is not long 'til the tempter's gone and everything's all right
I came to the feet of Jesus, determined to do right
I prayed and trusted, night and day, until I saw the light
I've started now for Heaven, I'm taking a different trail
I'm trusting now in the promises of God, for I know they can not fail
REFRAIN: Walking in the way with Jesus, feeling mighty happy now
When I'm tempted to do wrong, before the Lord I bow
I ask him for protection, as we begin to fight
And it is not long 'til the tempter's gone and everything's all right
God leads me to the bible, where I can plainly see
That Jesus hung on Calvary's cross and died for you and me
I'm sorry now for sinners, for you I'm sick at heart
Why can't you decide for Christ today, and from him never part?
REFRAIN: Walking in the way with Jesus, feeling mighty happy now
When I'm tempted to do wrong, before the Lord I bow
I ask him for protection, as we begin to fight
And it is not long 'til the tempter's gone and everything's all right
I gave up sin and drinking to lead a different life
And by God's grace I will hold out, 'til free from toil and strife
Then when Life's book is opened and not a thing is found
I'll gladly join the angel choir to seize the Promised Ground
REFRAIN: Walking in the way with Jesus, feeling mighty happy now
When I'm tempted to do wrong, before the Lord I bow
I ask him for protection, as we begin to fight
And it is not long 'til the tempter's gone and everything's all right
